About this listen

Fifty years ago, an unknown writer named Euell Gibbons (1911–1975) presented a book on gathering wild foods to the New York publisher David McKay Co.

Together, they settled on the title, Stalking the Wild Asparagus. No one expected that this iconic title would become part of the American language, nor did they anticipate the revival of interest in natural food and in environmental preservation in which this book played a major role. Euell Gibbons became an unlikely celebrity and made many television appearances. Stalking the Wild Asparagus has sold the better part of half a million copies since the original publication, and has been continuously in print since 1962.

Euell Gibbons was one of the few people in this country to devote a considerable part of his life to the adventure of living off the land. He sought out wild plants all over North America, and turned ordinary fruits and vegetable into delicious dishes. His book includes recipes for vegetable and casserole dishes, breads, cakes, muffins, and twenty different pies. It also includes jellies, jams, teas, wines, and how to sweeten them with wild honey or homemade maple syrup.

This brand-new audio edition is wonderfully narrated by Douglas James. Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

Great read!

Saw this book laying out in my local butcher shop.
Flipped a few pages and knew this was up my alley.
Immediately bought it. I listen while driving to work each day and could not wait to get up each morning to listen to more. Very engaging. I may re-listen again next month.
