Description
From field, forest, and stream to table, award-winning journalist Hank Shaw explores the forgotten art of foraging.
If there is a frontier beyond organic, local and seasonal, beyond farmers’ markets and grass-fed meat, it’s hunting, fishing and foraging your own food. A lifelong angler and forager who became a hunter late in life, Hank Shaw is dedicated to finding a place on the table for the myriad overlooked and underutilized wild foods that are there for the taking—if you know how to find them.
Hunt, Gather, Cook is an indispensable introduction to the pleasures of foraging, fishing, and hunting, with more than 50 recipes for making the most of the fruits of a day spent gathering food in the wild. Featuring:

Nettles and acorns

Fun and Interesting, not your typical cookbook
This is a great read and proved to be very interesting. If you love food and even think you like to cook, then this is worth a look. It gives a perspective rarely, if ever, shown in modern books of this type.
