An Instant Guide to Edible Plants: The Most Familiar Edible Wild Plants of North America Described and Illustrated in Full Color

Color, info, great for outdoorsman

This book is both a treasure, and a literal life-saver. The value of careful, detailed, full-color illustrations to the wild food forager cannot be over-stated. Near misses in id'ing a plant can put you in the hospital, or worse yet in the morgue (the number 1 reason why I don't eat wild mushrooms). The ladies who put this one together knew what questions the beginner would need answered and in simple to the point pictures, text and diagrams tell all. The layout of the book makes for speed and ease in usage and the illustrations are lovely. You will be amazed at what you find within. If you have only one wild edibles book in your house make it this one!
