From the Publisher
Although most people know Nostradamus for his prophecies, he was also one of the most important healers of his time. The Elixirs of Nostradamus contains his most coveted recipes for elixirs, beauty potions, scented waters, bottled fruits, and other specialties, all of which first appeared in the 16th century.
Lavishly illustrated, readers will learn how to add gold highlights to their hair, prepare a powder for whitening their teeth, make aromatic soap, preserve bitter cherries, and even make marzipan. The 41 recipes in this collection make a charming gift for anyone interested in the life of this compelling man.

The Elixers Of Nostradamus,
By "thomasman" (Hamburg, Germany) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Elixirs of Nostradamus: Nostradamus' Original Recipes for Elixirs, Scented Water, Beauty Potions, and Sweetmeats (Hardcover)
Cool book. Missing 18th chapter becasue of "Moral, Christian, God Fearing reasons" is a major bummer. I would like to read just the 18th chapter alone on psychoactive plants and entheogens rather than recipes for preserved nuts and skin whiteners.
