First published over 350 years ago during the reign of Elizabeth
I, "Culpeper's Herbal" remains one of the most complete listings of
herbs and their uses in existence. From Adder's Tongue to Yarrow,
each of the 411 herbs is described in detail, along with its
"government and virtues," remedies, and cautions. Although much of
the medical advice must be taken with a pinch of salt, the engaging
tone, enthusiasm, and expertise of the author are irresistible and
highly entertaining. Also included is Culpeper's advice on
gathering, drying, conserving, and using herbs to get the most out
of them. This collector's edition is a must-have for anyone
interested in herbs and their uses. Each entry is illustrated with
a finely detailed image and there are thirty beautiful full-page
plates throughout the book.
