"Wild Food IN Australia tells not only how one can survive in the desert or any other apparently inhospitable environment but, in a lighter vein, it also gives many new ideas for supplementing one's daily diet with unusual and interesting bush foods. It throws fresh light on the rich diversity of wild food-plants in Australia and demonstrates how 'living off the land', whether from choice or necessity, is indeed a practical proposition."
