Summary

Food Foraging Guide offers a detailed exploration into the world of edible plants and insects, emphasizing sustainable practices rooted in science and respect for nature. This guide addresses the growing interest in self-reliance and environmental stewardship by providing accessible knowledge on how to safely identify, harvest, and utilize resources found in your local environment. Interestingly, many edible insects, like crickets, offer complete proteins comparable to beef with a significantly lower environmental impact, and some common "weeds" are more nutritious than many cultivated vegetables. 

 
The book uniquely blends scientific rigor with traditional ecological knowledge, guiding readers through botanical and entomological identification using high-resolution photographs and detailed descriptions. It progresses from foraging ethics and legal considerations to plant and insect identification, organized geographically, before delving into harvesting techniques, processing methods, and recipes. This approach ensures readers not only learn what to forage but also how to do so responsibly, promoting biodiversity and discouraging destructive practices.

Once We Had the Arctic -...

Markku Heikkilä

A unique journey into the Arctic world, its myths and changes 
Finland’s leading expert on Arctic affairs, Markku Heikkilä shares insights from 25 years of travel, from the northern parts of Canada to the Ob River and from Iceland to Alaska. 
During his journeys, Heikkilä shatters myths and preconceptions about life in the Arctic. He highlights stories that few people know, such as the Last War of the Khanty People, Alaskan Sámi reindeer and the ballerina in Svalbard. 
The book dives into landscapes and lives, some of which we are about to lose. It’s about more than our changing climate; the Arctic was once a shared space among different peoples, until the region was swept in a storm of global politics.

In addition, Cuisinart and Hamilton Beach both produce models that are quite popular. The same concepts are utilized by Kitchen Aid's ice cream-making accessories for their stand mixers, which are manufactured by the company.

Strange Tales from National...

Martin K Ettington

National Parks here and abroad have an unusual number of strange, scary, and weird activities going on. 
 
It may be because these areas cover some of the most hidden and still natural and undisturbed locations in the world.  
 
These parks offer undisturbed areas where man does not intrude normally, and many activities can be hidden there. 
 
The stories in this book are mostly by Park Rangers who spent years in the outback of these parks and tell of their unusual and sometimes very scary experiences. 
 
I’ve divided up these stories mainly by types like missing persons, Bigfoot sightings, Aliens and UFOs, and more. 
 
Some experiences are so weird or unusual they were hard to categorize so they are in the chapter titled “Random Stories”. 
 
From my own experiences camping the wilderness I know that you need to be prepared for the unexpected. 
 
All of these stories were reported as true-but who is to say what the real truth is?
