Smossy I have a good one but I loaned it to my uncle.  I cant remember its title but I will get it back and pm you.  It is a soft cover, waterproof illustrated thick book which covers all grasses trees shrooms bush etc and even speaks of the Natives uses of plants.  Very good written by two professors here and oregon I think.  I got it from amazon for 25$ few years ago.  You would like it.  I like to carry it in my pack and consider it an emergency tool.  We could survive with no supplies if we had this knowledge in our heads.  Medicinal uses are covered too. 

Perfect, Thats the type of stuff Im after. I want to eventually know how to be self sufficient Just incase.. You know... Shtf.

Barnes and noble has a good selection of edible plant books and I believe they even have one that is specifically for the northwest.
