Numerous photos and narrative description make it possible to make acorn meal yourself (tho I haven't done so). Cultural teachings, about respecting the food, are given. The appendix includes early descriptions of Yosemite acorn making, a lengthy bibliography, and a brief step-by-step "recipe" for

preparing acorns using modern kitchen equipment.
