5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on growing, and using medicinal herbs., 15 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Plant Power: The Humorous Herbalist's Guide to Finding, Growing, Gathering & Using 30 Great Medicinal Herbs (Paperback)
After years of research, writing and editing, Laurel Dewey, The Humorous Herbalist, has released her second book, Plant Power. This is not a continuation of her first book. This one is 415 pages and in a nutshell, includes three major sections: The Basics covers growing a medicinal herb garden, including what to grow, how to grow and in which soils, harvesting, dying and seed collecting of herbs. The Ethics chapter discusses the art of "valid crafting", an old term for an herbalist or nature lover who walks the fields in search of wild plants. She discusses the character and life of the herbs, as well as the ethics involved in gathering, offering readers much food for thought on how to behave in the wild. In the Herbs section, Dewey covers in-depth 30 useful medicinal herbs from alfalfa to yellow dock, including their character, where they can be found, and how to grow, harvest and use them. In her introdcution, Dewey writes, "There seemed to be a desire by many practitioners in alternative medicine to create an aura of mystery when discussing the use of herbs." In this book, Dewey makes great strides in breaking down those barriers. Excerpted from a review in The Glenwood Post, Colorado, 7/9/1999
