Sinopse

Wild Roots Sustain explores the world of foraging, focusing on identifying and sustainably harvesting edible plants within forest ecosystems. It emphasizes the interconnectedness of ecological balance, nutrition, and our relationship with nature. Historically, foraging was essential for survival, and this book aims to revive that knowledge, offering a guide to responsible foraging grounded in ecological awareness.

The book explains that many edible plants play crucial roles in their environments, such as supporting insect populations or enriching the soil.

The book begins with botanical principles for plant identification, highlighting key characteristics and potential look-alikes. It then provides detailed descriptions of edible plant species, their habitats, and nutritional value.

A significant portion is dedicated to sustainable harvesting techniques, stressing minimal environmental impact. For example, it explains how to harvest without damaging the plant or disturbing the surrounding ecosystem.

The final sections cover preparing and preserving foraged foods.

Combining scientific rigor with a practical approach, Wild Roots Sustain provides a unique perspective for nature enthusiasts. It emphasizes understanding the ecological context of foraging, not just plant identification, and offers a path to sustainable living through responsible interaction with forest ecosystems. The book draws from field guides, scientific research, and traditional knowledge, progressing from foundational concepts to practical applications across its chapters.

Montaigne in Barn Boots - An...

Michael Perry

The beloved memoirist and bestselling author of Population: 485 reflects on the lessons he’s learned from his unlikely alter ego, French Renaissance philosopher Michel de Montaigne 
“The journey began on a gurney,” writes Michael Perry, describing the debilitating kidney stone that led him to discover the essays of Michel de Montaigne. Reading the philosopher in a manner he equates to chickens pecking at scraps—including those eye-blinking moments when the bird gobbles something too big to swallow—Perry attempts to learn what he can (good and bad) about himself as compared to a long-dead French nobleman who began speaking Latin at the age of two, went to college instead of kindergarten, worked for kings, and once had an audience with the pope. Perry “matriculated as a barn-booted bumpkin who still marks a second-place finish in the sixth-grade spelling bee as an intellectual pinnacle … and once said hello to Merle Haggard on a golf cart.” 
Written in a spirit of exploration rather than declaration, Montaigne in Barn Boots is a down-to-earth (how do you pronounce that last name?) look into the ideas of a philosopher “ensconced in a castle tower overlooking his vineyard,” channeled by a Midwestern American writing “in a room above the garage overlooking a defunct pig pen.” Whether grabbing an electrified fence, fighting fires, failing to fix a truck, or feeding chickens, Perry draws on each experience to explore subjects as diverse as faith, race, sex, aromatherapy, and Prince. But he also champions academics and aesthetics, in a book that ultimately emerges as a sincere, unflinching look at the vital need to be a better person and citizen.
