### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great survival Technique
*by M***N on October 20, 2012*

Dear Seller, love your book it is a real survival benefit for everyone I would recommend it to everyone. It teaches of the plants that I have learned when I was a child such as the berries of blueberries, blackberries, raspberries,strawberries and even the wild grapes that grew abundantly all around us when my family and I grew up. we had apple trees but no one knew how to take care of them as i am now trying to learn how to take care of my few dwarf apple and cherry trees and i am still i the learning process.It teaches you poisonous plants to be ware of like our childhood experiences with Poison Ivy, Oak and Sumac however i never knew that Jewel weed grew near it and that it was the remedy or antidote to cure your ailments.It teaches some mushroom are eatable as others are poisonous. It also shows a lot of common plants that are eatable. There are even some flowers that today are known to be eatable as well as what I have researched thanks to the Scientific study proof . There were many of these that I just took for granted of the beauty that captured my eyes as well as my heart that we used to pick while my brothers and sisters walked along with me those few miles back and forth almost every day out to the Little Country store on the back roads behind our first high way. We would always just admire all the tiger Lilly's that grew along side the road as later in the future I showed that same road to my future husband while we were in the beginning of courting each other that took us off into another road that lead us through the sweet scent of the of the most beautiful wild Lilacs of many different colors which really set the the scenery of our love that only deepened of the paradise that we had found together along with all the memories of my childhood days that brought us to that day near that beautiful lake that we used to swim at where my best friend and I used to go when we met in 1976. It brought me back to the days of when I used to pick Wild Strawberries and Pussy Willows when I used to visit my friend who had a lot of cats and where my brothers would play ball down the ball field as I would stop in and sit on the bleachers and and catch the last inning cheering them on as I walked up the big hill on the opposite road cutting through a short cut while grabbing a few handful of sour Wild Grapes of my neighbors Grapevine that grew along that road that lead to my home of my Mom and dads house that lastly they would catch me snacking on their little Wild Blueberry bush as i would come home with a Pink Rose with in my hand as the sun would set before my curfew began. Then in the morning I would walk down by the old beach that was down fro us and I would just wade in the water as thoughts of my fiance would go through my head of the wonder memories that i shared with him of my childhood life yet my heart would be filled with the new memories that we had shared together with future memories that would be made together. Dreams from my first garden which was carrots to my wild berry picking that lead from the Tiger Lilly's from that little country store and back to that day of where my husband and I found that little Paradise with all the wonder scents of the Lilacs and other flower scents that would carry me through out my life of the many wonderful sites that we have been before we were even together and after where today flowers have even been discovered to be eatable as well as the many different herbs and plants that someone born from yesterday could only be capture by all their beauty.If only the children of today could have lived with in our life time and see and experience what we have experienced and appreciate what they have our children would not only know but feel all the love that has surrounded us for all those years however it is sad because in this modern day world of convenience they may only get to have a glimpse of our world and they can never understand. I am just glad that our son who is now 19 has that chance to at least learn of some of our ways of what he knows to be Organics but what was not know way back then. Thank again medicine Thank you again for this book that brings all those memories back to my husband, my family and me. I should write a book as my sons say that I have that potential because I have much more that could be told only I will save that for another time just get the book and you will see as I edit more to my true story. So I will catch you all later.medicine
