Magic and Medicine of Plants by Reader's Digest Editors (1997)

One of the best books for identifing plants in the wild. Great photography, and wonderful descriptions. Has loads of info on plant uses in food and medicine. A must have for anyone interested in wild flowers and herbal medicine. I think every household should have a copy of this book.

This is a great little book for plant identification. It has photographs and drawings which are very good, the descriptions are very complete. There is a lot of information on the medicinal uses of common plants. The folklore of the uses is included as well as a section on growing your own herb garden. I had owned this book before and lost it so I was pleased to find it on EBay!!

The transaction was great...as always. These books are helping my club in root identification and in some instances, helping to treat minor abrasions etc. We are having great fun anyway with it!!

I bought this book for myself. It's full of information. then my daughter was over and had to have the book. She's a naturalist when it comes to herbs and plants. So I needed to find another one and naturally I went to ebay.She told my sisiter inlaw about it , so here I go again.Luckily, I found both of them one on ebay.This is one of the books to have for tree & plant questions.

Book gives descriptions of plants, some pictures of the plant and tells you how to use plant as medicine, even tells you how to make it. Very informative!
I bought the book to try and go back to old ways of remedies. I will try some of these listed in this book

This is one great book which has been brought to the public from Readers' Digest Editors. It is very clear with understanding how plants can help us NATURALLY get back to basics when it comes taking better care of ourselves and our health. Magic and Medicine of Plants is thorough, easy to read and understand and
Readers' Digest has once again put out a book that is a mainstay - a great coffee table book but NOT JUST FOR LOOKS ' this one is meant to be read'. This book was purchased on eBay by me for a friend of mine who is 72 yrs. young. She does not use computers' but anytime she is in need of a book from her past we search eBay and also Amazon. This book is complete
