For perhaps fifty thousand years the Aboriginal people have lived, and lived well, in Australia. They have developed a unique knowledge of native plants and a deep understanding of the value of many animal products. Bush Food is an exploration of these traditional skills and a compendium of the kinds of foods eaten by Aborigines. It indicates how food is caught or gathered, hunted or picked, how it is prepared and cooked, and what nutritional value it has. It considers, too, the use of natural products in traditional Aboriginal herbal medicine.
This book is well presented, with many colour photographs showing each of the various foods/herbs described. It is a good introduction to the foods and medical herbs available, should one be out in the "outback". This book will help you to survive in the harsh conditions of the Australian outback and bush.
