Satisfied Customer,
This review is from: "Wild Edible and Medicinal Plants of the Sierra Nevada" (Spiral-bound)
I am getting ready to spend a month in the Sierra Nevada mountain range and was looking for a good source for wild edibles in the area. This was the only book that I could find, and it's a gem! It's the perfect size for my pack and includes color photographs of each of the plants. The author includes all of the relevant information on the subject: plant habitat and range, physical description, food uses, medicinal uses, and cautionary guidelines. I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning how to live in harmony with the natural environment. In addition, the distributer/author/publisher was prompt in his delivery and personal in his response to my e-mail, a far stretch from the impersonal nature of internet commerce.
5.0 out of 5 stars
well done,
This review is from: "Wild Edible and Medicinal Plants of the Sierra Nevada" (Spiral-bound)
This is a cool book. It's very small so it is ideal for legitimate backpacking trips. I haven't had a chance to use it yet but it contains tons of good information. I just hope I don't eat the wrong plant and die alone in the wilderness!
