Incredibly small book. Arrived in good condition but fits into palm of hand and print very small. Would not like to rely on it when picking wild berries or mushrooms!

    CULINARY DELIGHT IN YOUR POCKET.

    I have loved this book for years. I could not be more delighted to have found a copy in "pocket size". The articles are clear, as are the pictures. The recipes are easy and delicious. I could waffle on for hours but would bore my readers. That would be a terrible thing to do to the book which has delighted me for so long. Most inappropriate!!! So let me simply say: "The best guide ever!" and leave it at that.

  • It’s pocket sized

    I bought the original when first published snd hadn’t appreciated this edition was pocket size. This could prove useful as the original lived on a shelf.

  • Little Gem describes it perfectly

    I was recommended this by a friend and I am so grateful for the advice. There's so much out there for free and we walk passed most of it. Photography and illustrated with in depth descriptions it is a great little pocket book for anyone

  • Interesting Reads

    This little pocket book has a nice menu of freely available foodstuffs and recipes to include them in. While not an exhaustive list it is a great starting point for foragers.
