The author covers all geographical areas of the US, explains in what environs each plant can be found, the season to find each one, which parts of the plant are edible, and how to prepare for consumption. He also covers poisonous plants, and explains how to tell the difference between edible and poisonous plants that resemble each other.
Highly recommended.

A Must Have for the Adventuresome Hiker,
By
This review is from: The Wild Food Trailguide (Paperback)
This book is wonderful. It illustrates a wide range of fruits, nuts, and fauna that are edible and commonly available on the trail. It has been an entertaining and educational tool on hiking trips with my sons, and the survivalist in me loves the confidence I dervive from knowing that if I did ever get lost in the woods I wouldn't starve with this book at my side.

Outstandingly informative year round guide to wild edible foods,
By
This review is from: The Wild Food Trailguide (Paperback)
I found the book to be a very exceptional source of information for wild edible foods found throughout the United States. The author has given the identifying characteristics, other common names, habitat, season as well as the collection and uses of each plant. The book offers a delightful assortment of easily identifiable, tasty wild foods that would surely interest even the novice forager.
