This compact, portable laminated pamphlet contains delicate drawings of common plants and trees that were traditionally used for medicinal usage. It is easy to use, with simple, yet detailed, descriptions of the plant, a note on its habitat and a brief line on it's medicinal usage. This is a nice reference for anyone interested in early remedies or simply interested in possible medicinal usage of common, widespread plants. ( )
