I found my copy in a little second hand book store in Charleston, S. C. I was drawn to the cover - loved the illustrations (pen and ink). Has a little bit of everything from the cool illustrations by Win Ng (did I say I liked the illustrations????), best uses for herbs, history of the uses (myths/lore), recipes including teas, which herbs to choose for certain foods, how best to harvest/store, and an annotated bibliography. If you are a fan of herbs, seek out this old book, you'll be happy to peruse it over and over - I treasure mine!… (mais)
