Product Description
THE HERBAL MEDICINE-MAKER'¬?S HANDBOOK is an entertaining compilation of natural home remedies written by one of the great herbalists, James Green, author of the best-selling THE MALE HERBAL. Writing in a delightfully personal and down-home style, Green emphasizes the point that herbal medicine-making is fundamental to every culture on the planet and is accessible to everyone. So, first head into the garden and learn to harvest your own herbs, and then head into your kitchen and whip up a batch of raspberry cough syrup, or perhaps a soothing elixir to erase the daily stresses of modern life.

Katolen Yardley, Medical Herbalist,
By Katolen Yardley (Vancouver, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Herbal Medicine-Maker's Handbook: A Home Manual (Paperback)
As a practicing medical herbalist I highly recommend anyone with a passion for plant medicine to purchase this book and bring herbal wisdom back home, to the kitchen and the garden in which the plants originated. This is an easy to follow, yet practical step-by-step guide for preparing herbal medicines at home, from preparing infusions and poultices to sitz baths and macerations. An expert guide to medicine making, with folklore and useful resources.

Far more in-depth than your usual herbal recipe book,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Herbal Medicine-Maker's Handbook: A Home Manual (Paperback)
The Herbal Medicine-Makers Handbook blends the herbalist author's natural home remedies with his perspectives on the art of herbal medicine's applications, with recipes for folk extractions including plenty of recommendations for usage. The result is far more in-depth than your usual herbal recipe book, packed with insights on how to extract herbs, make tinctures, and apply them properly.

Very informative,
By "ldybgd" (MA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Herbal Medicine-Maker's Handbook: A Home Manual (Paperback)
Finally a book that takes the magic of herbalism and adds a healthy dose of structure, science and common sense. As a beginning herbalist, I find the information contained in the book extremely useful and not found in many other places. This book has earned its place on my favorite list.
