The Complete Herb Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Herb Book (Paperback)
I was very impressed with this book. It offers a great basic introduction into herbs. It explains, in a simple easy to understand manner, the basics of growing and storing herbs, in addition to some great recipes for cooking, healing, and various craft items. The first half of the book is dedicated to 50 specfic herbs and their uses and growing techniques, the second half to general recipes. I would have liked to learn about more that the 50 mentioned, but to be fair, they are 50 of the most popular and safest to work with. I would recommend this book highly to people just starting their herbal education. It is a great reference book!

This review is from: Complete Herb Book (Paperback)
This author Maggie Stuckey comes from a long line of love for plants. Her family has 4 generations in the business of every plant you can think of, so running a Nursery and growing plants on a small and large scale are the best of the best. This is a cute book and although it doesn't cover all herbs, it shines a bright light on the most common. If you are a plant growing enthusist, I highly recommend her newest book "Bountiful Container", Oh My what an incrediable book to own. I don't start a garden without it. Look for all of Maggie's books, you won't be disappointed, she is getting up in her age, so I don't know if we will see anymore, so get the ones you can, you will always go back to them.
