This review is from: Llewellyn's 2010 Herbal Almanac (Annuals - Herbal Almanac) (Paperback)

When some thing comes from Llewellyn's I exspect something of high quality and packeted with useful information. Unforunetly that wasn't true in this case. As a herbal almanac, one would expect more information on herbs, insteed all we get is the herbal name and the scientific classifacation. Not alot of help when searching for information for wild crafting, or anything else.

This book is great!!! I've been buying Lewellyns 'Witches Almanac' for years and finally decided to get this book for the first time this year. I love all of the articles which cover topics from cooking with herbs, to using them medicinally to cosmetic uses. There are plenty of articles too, which gives the reader much to read and therefore, in my opinion, makes for a good book. Definite fan and will be getting a new herbal every year, and am even considering buying some of the back issues.
