Ups and Downs
Customer Rating:  Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3
This book is a good field guide to edible plants in North America, but it has some black and white pictures.
It tells you how to prepare the plants, but nothing on there medicinal properties. Wich is the reason I bought it so I guess Im out of luck on that one.

Top notch guide
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
This is the best book I have found for identification, uses and preparation of wild edibles. The photos and seasonal guide is very helpful as well as the poisonous look-a-likes list.

GREAT book
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
This is the best purchase I have made with regards to edible wild plants. It is well organized with keys for quick referencing, details on where in the country to look and at what season merely with a glance at a table so you need not wade through the details to locate specific information on what is available at the time you are planning to search. You'll see all your target plants in a given season and where to locate them. The color photos are all great.

A 'must' for people interested in edible wild plants
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
My only regret about this book is that it isn't longer!

The plants are organized by season, and every plant has a small map to show what regions it grows in. There is a very nice, good sized picture of each plant, and most of them are in color. Information is also provided about harvesting, how to prepare the plant, and poisonous look alikes, if any.

The plants are listed by their common names, but the latin names are listed as well. Plants can be located by either name in the index.

If you are interested in edible wild plants, this book is a great value for a reasonable price.
