Beautifully written, with such care and respect for the Earth and her medicines. James shares valuable knowledge on working with these amazing plants. Highly recommend this book
If you are an herbalist, witch, healer, shaman, grannywitch, green witch, hedge witch...etc etc, and you have this book and The Poison Path book, you could literally live the rest of your life without needing any other herb books.
this book contain lots of information of some herbs and the many different ways you can work with them. there was a lot to take in and hard to just remember all, but the book will be used for years to come when making medicals as a guide for doing is the way to learn. i loved the story in chapter 26
