Customer Review:
I am really enjoying this book. The current rice shortage and e-coli outbreaks were topics I wanted to better understand, and that's what got me interested (and it has certainly helped illuminate those topics for me). But I'm finding the whole thing fascinating. Each chapter is a... more info

from Forager's Harvest Press
Price: $22.95

Customer Review:
While this book doesn't cover a huge variety of wild edidbles the text and pictures on the ones it does cover are very useful.

This book just confirms the other reading I have done on the subject.

from Sierra Club Books
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
As I read this book, I agree with Berry on many points, the evolution of householder into consumer, and agriculturist into corporate farming.
In fact much of what we see to today that drives small farmers off the farm is the drive for more. Corporate interests in the guise of Ted Turner,... more info
