I check this book out from the local library, after reading it I WANT IT! Easy to follow and understand.
Every herb, all 120 of them, has a picture with identifying parts, leaves flowers and stems. Also, how to grow them, forage for them and harvest them.
Along with originations and how the herb obtained it names, it tells you how to use them: Juice, cream, infusions, compress, tablets ect beside every herb.
Chapters in the back clearly outlines which herbs are good for skin, digestion, circulation, colds ect with recipes right there. The recipes for soaps, scrubs, tonics, sprtiz, masks, hair tonics, and food (soups and smoothies) are very easy to follow.
This book is great for beginners and those advanced herbalist who want a quick reference guide.
