Sonoran Desert Food Plants:: Edible Uses for the Desert's Wild Bounty

Sonoran Desert Food Plants is specifically designed for the hiker, camper, hunter, or survivalist who is in need of a concise, no-nonsense booklet instructing on the collection, preparation, and utilization of 53 regional edible plants. Essentially: find it, gather it, and eat it. 106 color photos, state-by-state location maps, common and scientific names, preparation and toxicity issues, and concise medicinal and related ethnobotanical uses serve as accents making Sonoran Desert Food Plants a must-have desert-rat resource.

The following plants are covered (45 indigenous to the Sonoran Desert/Uplands and 8 non-native yet abundant): Agave, Amaranth, Barrel Cactus, Beargrass, Bluedicks, Bowlesia, Canyon Walnut, Catclaw, Cattail, Chia, Chickweed, Cholla, Desert Hackberry, Desert Hollygrape, Devil's Claw, Elder, Filaree, Flameflower, Graythorn, Ground Cherry, Hedgehog Cactus, Ironwood, Jewels of Opar, Jojoba, Lambsquarters, Lemonade Berry, Mallow, Mariposa lily, Mesquite, Miner's Lettuce, Monkey Flower, Ocotillo, Paloverde, Papalo, Pincushion Cactus, Poreleaf, Prickly Pear, Saguaro, Sow Thistle, Texas Mulberry, Thistle, Tumbleweed, Watercress, Wild Carrot, Wild Gourd, Wild Lettuce, Wild Mustard, Wild Oats, Wild Rhubarb, Wild Sunflower, Wolfberry, Yucca (Fruit), and Yucca (Stalk).

Readers will also find Kane's approach to the material refreshingly objective and on-target: no philosophical ramblings and epicurean cookbook recipes, just stripped-down, sensical information on how to best utilize the most common wild desert food plants of the Sonoran region.
