Customer Reviews

Immediately Useful

I bought this book in Montana mainly for use near my home in New Mexico, and I put it to immediate use in identifying wild plums just around the corner from me. In addition to being an accurate guide to Rocky Mountain berries and related fruits, the book is well written, and sensibly organized. The copious recipes are quite clear as well. Written by a true wild berry fancier.Food writer Elliot Essman's other reviews and food articles are available at www.stylegourmet.com

The Rocky Mountain Berry Book

The amount of information packed into this little paperback book is incredible! This is not the usual vague, dry field guide since Bob Krumm writes about wild berries from his own personal experience. The descriptions of the plants, info on where to find them, color pictures, and cautions about poisonous plants and wild animals make it possible for even the most inexperienced berry pickers to safely find these little treasures. The hints and recipes from diverse sources make this book unique - it's more than a field guide,and more than a cookbook. I love this book.
