Updated and illustrated in full color, this classic retains the charm and elegance of Culpeper’s 17th-century text. “Beautiful, affordable and particularly relevant...identifies both medicinal virtues and modern uses of each plant. In addition to beautiful color illustrations to help with identification of each plant, readers can contrast the ideas of the 16th and 17th centuries [with] those of today.”—Alive.
