Book Reviews of Herbs and Herb Lore of Colonial America
Book Review: Great little resource book
Summary: 5 Stars
This little book was a great find. It's a Dover reprint of a much earlier gem that might otherwise have been lost. It is pleasant to read and makes a great reference, as it is well researched and documented. Particularly useful if you are researching early plant uses, early gardening, and early folk medicine in the colonial U.S.
