Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute vaquero, marrow, or white runner beans for yellow-eyed beans.

    This is a bit fussy to put together but the resulting stew is exceptionally delicious. I don't think this will make good leftovers because as the soup cools the green dulls to an awful drab brown so make it when there are people to share with! Even the soup left in the pot after dinner looked like the frog soup from Triplets of Belleville (if you haven't seen the movie, that's not good!). A friend urged me to buy this book because of this recipe and I feel compelled to recommend the same.
