Here, in a rich plum pudding of a book, is Beard's own selection of his famous columns~columns that have been devoured for the past four years by those fortunate enough to have them in their local papers (dozens of them, from Hartford to Memphis to Tacoma). Here, in short, is Beard on Food! Use this wonderfully provocative cookbook in a new way. The over 200 recipes~easily spotted in green type~are doubly seductive because they flow out of whatever subject has engaged Beard's fancy. If you are looking for meat dishes, browse through My Ways with Meat and let him tantalize you with his special recipe for hamburger, a thrifty and nourishing Oxtail Ragout, or some crunchily delicious Deviled Beef Bones; for fishy subjects, try A Good Catch and you'll be drawn to a forgotten favorite like Codfish Cakes or a new adventure in Gastropods with garlicky butter. Or consult Beard's subject guide at the back. A dish to enhance a Sunday brunch? (try Scotch Woodcock). Or a cold winter's supper? (ever heard of Cullen Skink?).Or a summer lunch? (a cool radish salad, perhaps). This then is a book that stimulates in a way that no ordinary collection of recipes can. Every page is so generously informed with Beard's intimate knowledge of and clear sensuous pleasure in his material that the reader's appetite is immediately refreshed. It is the kind of reading that, as Beard would say of a good country ham, "starts the taste buds quivering.".

Close to 300 spectacular color photographs~carefully chosen to show not only the beauty of each flower but its leaf shape and environment~are arranged according to an ingenious keying system that makes it unusually easy to identify a flower. Yet with this book, identification is only the beginning. For each flower, the richly detailed text provides fascinating information on everything from blooming period and growing habits to associated folklore and legend~even medicinal uses and edibility and, in some cases, recipes. Among the outstanding features of this book: ~291 remarkable color photographs ~A Special Identification System based on color, habitat and general appearance. To identify a wildflower, you need only turn to its color group in the photographic section. Within the color group, flowers are arranged according to their habitat (Alpine, Desert, Sea Coast, etc.), and finally by their shape. Whatever their botanical relationship, flowers similar in appearance are found together~a boon for the amateur. ~ Detailed drawings of flower anatomy, inflorescences and leaf shape. ~Detailed descriptions of nearly 400 species and 70 flower families and detailed references to several hundred other species. ~A section on edible wildflowers and species useful for medicine. ~A glossary of botanical terms and a full index of common and scientific names. The Wildfiowers of Western America includes all the important wild flowering species commonly found west of the Mississippi River. A companion volume, The Wildfiowers of Eastern America, covers the rest of the country. Either separately or as a pair, these are books no nature~lover should be without.
