Stalking the Wild Asparagus by Euell Gibbons (1967 hardcover first edition)

Description: Stalking the Wild Asparagus by Euell Gibbons Euell Gibbons was one of the few people in this country to devote a considerable part of his life to the adventure of “living off the land.” He sought out wild plants all over North America and made them into delicious dishes. His book includes recipes for vegetable and casserole dishes, breads, cakes, muffins and twenty different pies. He also shows how to make numerous jellies, jams, teas, and wines, and how to sweeten them with wild honey or homemade maple syrup. "What a great book! This guide to foraging is more of a folksy cookbook than a field guide, but well worth a read. Just browsing through it, I found out that acorns are edible, there are no poisonous wild onions, you can make great apple dishes, butter & jams with crab apples, and that I could make maple syrup from the trees in my yard, even though they are not sugar maples. The author has a grandfatherly style I really enjoy." - Jeanne, GoodReads Vintage Hardcover / McKay / 1967 / First Edition, 6th Printing / Very Good Condition (contains a gift inscription dated Christmas 1969) Feel free to message me with any questions.
