Gather Ye Wild Things: A Forager's Year

By Susan Tyler Hitchcock

Book Overview

First published in 1980, Gather ye Wild Things is not a field guide in the strictest sense but rather a meditation on some of the most common and useful plants in North America. The volume's fifty-two brief essays--each focusing on a particular species of subject during a season in which it is like to come to the would-be gatherer's attention--touch on culinary, medicinal, and cosmetic uses for wildlings.
