Best book on the subject, I've found so far. Everything you need to know, and some stuff you didn't need to know but is still useful. I think if you had ONLY this book to work from, you'd be fine.

I really enjoyed this book. To be fair, I'm a crazy herb lady, and I have a weakness for encyclopedias. That's how this book is structured. It's to the point, and if you were interested in herbs and hoodoo, I would recommend this.

Best book on this subject. Cat Yronwode's knowledge on this subject is enormous.
