So helpful.
DO NOT EAT WILD ONIONS.
You will mistake them for something else and die.

This is a great guide to boreal plants and their habitats. The plant descriptions include historical uses alongside modern ones, providing insight that I can't imagine you could easily find elsewhere. Some plant descriptions seem incomplete, but this might be due to information discovered post-publication.
