Review: I bought this book hoping to learn more about using healing herbs. Rosemary Gladstar did an excellent job with this book and I have learned so many things from it. The recipes that are included throughout this book are awesome. If you are interested in herbal remedies and natural beauty, this is the book for you.

Review: Ok, I am no writer so will just give my little ol opinion. Book is very nice, tons of great information and wonderful pictures.

However, it is not a book if you want to learn how to plant a garden, keep a garden or plant herbs etc..This books is mainly full of information of what herbs do, not what I wanted, but still a lovely book..

Now I need to find a book that can help me to grow a nice vegie and herb garden without killing everything;o)

Summary: Good looking book + lots of info.
Review: Rosemary Gladstar's Family Herbal: A Guide to Living Life with Energy, Health, and Vitality, is basically all her small manuals (Home Medicine Chest, Herbs for Beauty, Herbs for Children.. etc..) condensed into one handy volume with added information she doesn't include in her other books. She has been an herbalist for quite some time, and really knows her stuff. She also presents it in an easy to read and understand format while including some information about scientific properties of certain plants. Of course, you can't only have one book on herbalism, you have to cross reference, but this is a good book to add to your collection. It has a lot of good recipes, too.

Review: Yea this woman KNOWS what she's talking about. Written with a little humour, with joy, and incredibly knowledge, laid out in a manor that's easy to read and easy to access. I recomend this book for everyone who wants a little herbal beauty, a little herbal remedy, and a lot of herbal fun in their lives.
