3.0 out of 5 stars Depends on what you want the book for.., 25 Jan 2006
By A Customer
The book covers far more than your usual range of herbs - it also discusses wild plants with medicinal/culinary uses. The book has very clear and comprehensive photographs, although for some plants skimps on the cultivation details. In one instance, I noticed the error where it states that it's predominately Elder *leaves* that are used, but in reality it is the *berries*. A somewhat disturbing error, given the leaves are toxic.

I wouldn't buy this if I wanted a book on traditional culinary herbs, there's plenty of those around. I'd consider this book if I wanted something about wild food, but then 'Wild Food' by the same author is much nicer and includes recipes..!

Herbs (The garden plant series)

This book is colourful, helpful & very interesting indeed. Easy to understand & to follow. I would buy 2nd hand from the same buyer again as it arrived better than expected. All books in the Roger Phillips series seem to be above average.
