    Mother Earths Gifts

    One of the very best and most readable books that describes the Magic and Medicine of Plants. Excellent photos, plant location, and, as a physician, I found the book to be medically accurate and instructive. Generally we are not aware of the bounty we live in. This book brings the ancient healing arts into focus. I have given this book to a number of my collogues, friends and patients. All agree, that the content and clear writing are superb. Highly recommended.

    Reference and field guide

    This is a great book to identify and learn about wild plants that can be used in herbal remedies and which parts of each plant is safe vs poisonous. It’s a great bit of survival knowledge! Highly recommend!!

    Very Basic

    The information is very basic although abundant. Some herbs were labeled dangerous when in reality the quantities that would make them dangerous would be impossible to consume.
