3.0 out of 5 stars An interesting resource, April 10, 2000
By 
This review is from: The Backyard Medicine Chest: An Herbal Primer (Paperback)
This is an ideal book for the beginning herbalist. It is a simple practical introduction to herbal medicine. Six areas of health are covered with suggested herbal remedies. These areas are: digestive problems, respiratory problems, female problems, problems with muscles, joints, and back, nervous problems, and skin problems. Along with the herbal remedy for each affliction the book gives information about the herb suggested and and the practical history of the herbs themselves. Instruction for preparation and gathering of each herb is given.

For a person interested in colonial history the book has many anecdotes and quotes from historical medical books that are quite amusing. With the many historical anecdotes and quotes included in the book it is easily read, almost as easy as fiction.
