STALKING THE HEALTHFUL HERBS

STALKING THE HEALTHFUL HERBS Here Euell Gibbons shows the reader how to enjoy the culinary & medicinal virtues of herbs & wild plants. Drawn from the authors wide knowledge of plants as well as from the lore of Native Americans & early settlers, the information is supplemented by nutritionists at Pennsylvania State University who worked with Gibbons on analysis of the entries.WHAT THE EXPERTS ARE SAYING:How will the librarian classify this wise & delightful book that is, of course, about herbs & plants but with such a difference that the gardener, the cook, the chemist, the botanist, & the experimental scientist will find it rewarding reading? ...Books by this stalker should find a place in all general collections.
