"Mr. Heavey takes us back to the joys--and occasional pitfalls--of
the humble edibles around us, and his conclusions ring
true."--"Wall Street Journal"
Longtime "Field & Stream" contributor Bill Heavey has become
the magazine's most popular voice by writing for sportsmen with
more enthusiasm than skill. In his first full-length book, Heavey
chronicles his attempts to "eat wild," seeing how much of his own
food he can hunt, fish, grow, and forage.
But Heavey is not your typical hunter-gatherer. Living inside the
D.C. Beltway, and a single dad to a twelve-year-old daughter with
an aversion to "nature food," he's almost completely ignorant of
gardening and foraging. Incensed at the squirrels destroying his
tomatoes, he is driven to rodent murder--by arrow. Along the way,
Heavey is guided by a number of unlikely teachers, from the
eccentric Paula, who runs an under-the-table bait business, to
Michelle, an attractive single mom unselfconsciously devoted to
eating locally. To the delight of his readers and the embarrassment
of his daughter, he suffers blood loss, humiliation, and learns, as
he puts it, that "'edible' is not to be confused with
'tasty.'"
