Herbal Pharmacy,
By A Customer
This review is from: Jerry Baker's Herbal Pharmacy: 1,347 Super Secrets for Growing and Using Herbal Remedies (Hardcover)
Jerry Baker's books are always concise, practical, and never leave room for guess work. In this book he has applied those principals to give us a small book packed full of specific information and done it with witt and humor. He has helped preserve a dying art and preserved information for generations to come. I have several large herbal reference books, but none give specific amounts to take of an herb, which left me guessing. He gives specific details and also tells you in the margins counterindications if the herb might not be appropriate to take. For people who take their herbs seriously, they will not find a better guide.
