Natures Restaurant Fields Forests Wetlands Foods Of Eastern North America David G Mills by David G. Mills B00IGHY6WM instant download after payment.

This is a book on the greens, roots, seeds, grains, nuts and mushrooms you can find and eat in Eastern North America from fields, forests, wetlands and even urban environments. It is based on over four decades of my personal experience, and about three decades of continuous research. Not just what you can eat, but what looks similar that you should know not to eat. This is a good book for the beginner to the more experienced who want to identify, learn about, and incorporate some good tasting and nutritious wild foods in their diet.

Instead of being an electronic print text of a paper book, this is an attempt to make a new kind of book. It makes use of the constantly updated information available on the web by use of 4,133 external links. When you see a highlighted and underlined word, click on it and it opens a new page in your web browser to show you pictures on Google or Bing Images, take you to definitions on Wikipedia, shows you distribution maps or useful diagrams. Since this information is always being updated, and new pictures being added, this book links you to the most up to date information every time you use it.

It is a large book with approximately 154,000 words, 392 photos, maps and diagrams, and the 4,133 external links. There are also 601 internal links for simplifying navigation in such a large document. In each entry on each plant it has the common names, the Latin name with a link, what to look for, the season to find it, where to find it, what might look like it, how to use it for food and cook it, information on growing that plant at home, a description table for the plant, links to recipes, links to photos on the web, links to distribution maps, included distribution maps and some entries have photos or drawings included.

The book is designed to work best on a device like a computer, laptop or tablet where you can read the book from the free Kindle for PC reader, and where there is a web browser. You can use it as well on a dedicated reader, but be aware, if there isn't a browser on the same device, the external links will not be able to open a page.

When creating this book, I wanted it be a cornerstone to exploring the wide world of wild plants and mushrooms. Think of it as a large centre that you use to follow in any direction that your interest in wild foods takes you. Enjoy.
