Food From the Veld: Edible wild plants of Southern Africa
Food from the Veld describes over a thousand wild plants which are known to be eaten in Southern Africa, ranging from delicious and highly-prized herbs and fruits to roots and tubers providing food and water during times of famine or drought. Each plant is botanically identified and described, with the common names in all southern African languages, followed by details of distribution and, finally, what is known about its use - which parts are eaten, how it is prepared and, when necessary, whether any precautions should be taken.
Numerous illustrations with some black and white photographs.
