Editorial Reviews

Review

What I like best about this book is its prose style--it conveys the intended information in a pleasant, almost conversational way. One feels the authors are people who have really eaten and used these plants and are practically standing there telling you about them. There are the little insights that come from experience which one rarely finds in more formalized presentations. --Coltsfoot -- Coltsfoot
