    About this ebook

    This antiquarian book contains a complete guide to the different wild foods of Great Britain, being a comprehensive guide to the recognition, gathering, and preparation of mushrooms, eggs, fruit, vegetables, berries, fish, molluscs, insects, and much more. This timeless handbook will appeal to modern readers with an interest in wilderness survival, and it would make for a fantastic edition to collections of related literature. Contents include: “Introductory”, “The Principles of Simple Cookery”, “A Normal List of the Wild Products of Great Britain”, “Edible Mammals”, “Birds and their Eggs”, “Amphibian: The Edible Frog”, “Fresh-Water Molluscs”, “Edible Insects and Insect Products”, “Crustaceans and Sea Urchins”, etcetera. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
