Reviews:
“I love this book. It’s very scientific. If I ever find a copy I’ll snatch it up for my personal library. There are no pictures and it’s totally more of a biology book than a field guide but it’s so unique and cool. There are so many edible plant in this book more than I’ve ever seen before. It’s absolutely a resource book and a great one at that!”
“I read this book cover to cover, and reread portions again and again. It opened my eyes to a huge array of food bearing plants we never learn about, see, or consider eating.”
