An attractive and practical reference tool

The Herb Bible is a beautiful book both to look at and to read. It offers a comprehensive way to discover the wonderful world of herbs and how to grow them productively in your own garden or home. It is also a wonderful incentive to return to healthy, natural eating.

It clearly and attractively outlines the uses and medicinal properties of many common herbs, what soil and environments the herbs require to grow successfully, and also includes many examples where each herb will enhance the tastes of certain dishes.

The Herb Bible will quickly become a favorite reference book. It is both enjoyable and practical and will constantly be off your bookshelf being put to good use.

Waiting for my book to arrive in the mail. Hopefully this book lists medicinal uses of herbs. I have a shelf full of herbs with a general knowledge of them...but want to delve deeper.

Nice place to start learning about herbs. Excellent herbed pizza crust recipe, that just needs to be doubled to make an ample pizza crust.

Good introduction to herbs, but those serious would do well from "Indian Herbology Of North America."
