Excellent close-up pictures
Nice book, flexible, easy to hold and view. Color photos of each plant to help with identification. In addition to details on each plant and it’s uses, the book has easy to use charts for helping to find which plant can be helpful with different listed health problems.

Informative Reference book!
This book has terrific and vibrant photos along with easily referenced information on a wide variety of plants, herbs, etc. It covers the historical uses of each plant, along with easy to see âKey Informationâ boxes. This is truly a easy to use no-nonsense reference guide that you can take in your backpack on hikes, walks or out to your garden. The beautiful high-quality photos will help anyone with identification of plants, wide angle and close-up photos are included.Book arrived with a bent corner. While the book itself is fine, itâs unattractive. Itâs currently sitting under heavier books to get the corner straight again. Which is working.

very useful
This is a wonderful book on learning about old fashioned herbal remedies. The pictures are great, and the wealth of information on what each herb is useful for is so helpful. I learned about lavender oil helping migraines and being an antispasmodic, so I tried it and was overjoyed to find that it really helped my headaches and spastic colon. It also has helpful sections dealing with using herbal remedies, as well as safety and quality. I bought a copy for my daughter-in-law, and she loves it.

A Cheerful y Happy Visual Referance
I loved this bright cheerful little precious book for identifying plants. Visual Referance Guide it calls itself. And I really like it. Just an awesome little companion that will stay in my back pack for the summer wildcrafting outings. Its a happy book if you know what I mean! ðI would buy it again.

I absolutely love that the book offers side effects and interactions
I absolutely love that the book offers side effects and interactions. This book is the best book I have come across regarding herbal remedies. It does not make them appear to be some sort of miracle cure and is honest about the research behind each herbal remedy.

Can’t beat it.
Anyone looking for an excellent guide should look no further than this book. It is loaded with a plethora of beautiful photos of herbs, and details on dosages is very helpful The latter aspect is of paramount value as nearly none of the several herb books I have divulge that information. Get a copy while still available.
