Spring 2008 - Yosemite Conservancy

Edible and Useful Plants
of California
by Charlotte Bringle Clarke
Both American Indians and
the pioneers knew and used
many different plant species
for food, fiber, medicine, tools
and other purposes. This is
a guide to identifying more
than 220 such plants. It also
tells how to prepare, cook and
otherwise use native plants. The
plants are organized by habitat
communities. Descriptions,
photos, drawings and
distribution information are given. Where poisonous
look-alikes exist, they too are illustrated. The author
emphasizes conservation considerations; the aim of
the book is to educate the reader about intriguing
plant uses, and to tell how to gather and use the most
palatable and abundant species without damaging the
environment. $18.95; member price $16.11

Nevada conifers. $16.00;
