Interesting variety, but needs more information. And fyi, the pictures are in black and white - which seems mad for a identification book.

Not enough information

This book only helps you identify certain wild plants and fungi. Maybe because I'm using a Kindle to read, the pictures are not that helpful.
I was expecting more information as to how to cook/prepare but very little direction was given. Some of the descriptions recommended that only certain parts of wild plants are desirable to eat and it would mention leaves, seeds, etc..But not how and where to use them, such as "for tea."
Not bad for a quick guide, but don't look for how tos.

I think this book is an absolute joke. It was 7 pounds. Looking at the cover of it thought it was gonna be a good and informative book at least above 100 pages for that money and i was shocked when i received it and saw there were black and white not even glossy pictires in it and also very little text. This book is an absolute no help when u need to identify a plant or a funghi which u don't know yet what's more trying to identify a fungi by this book could even lead to a fatal mistake... How on earth can a book like that to be published nowadays??! For me it is as if have just printed out a few pages from the internet in black and white but nothing more. Maybe i should start doing it too and ask money for it too...

A good beginner's guide with illustrative pictures to common plants, flowers, and fungi. It also gives expected taste and which part of the plant to use (flower, leaf, root). However, readers should note that the focus is on British (UK) plants. For North American readers, only a few plants are common to both regions, although the information on edible flowers was useful (apple blossoms, carnations, cornflowers, geraniums, lavender, lilacs, nasturtiums, pansies, roses, and sunflowers).

Different plants in this book

Never knew how many plants and weedy plants that are found around areas that you can physically eat as they mention. Very impressed with book. Was very useful, took a couple pics of ones to identify around my block and wooded area near me.

Very Informative!

Easy and informative. It is very good that caution is included to assist the novice to avoid life threatening accidents.

Mushrooms and other wild foods

This is a very well written short version of pictures and what to look for in an edible food, book. I love the way the author describes the flavors of each wild plant and how he gives an association of known foods to go along with the plants description....We need more authors of edible wild foods, like this one!. Thanks Charlie!
