Summary: Somewhat useful, but not all inclusive
Review: A very basic book of herb lore. But certainly not the one book you need for "Magical Herbalism". Easy to read and understand. Is now a little out-dated. A good a place as any to start if you are a beginner. It will give you a desire for more knowledge and start you on your quest.

Summary: A good beginners guide to herbs
Review: Another well-written guide by Cunningham, "Magical Herbalism" is a good book to have. Easy to read, easy to naviagte, this book offer a great deal of information. The only problem with it is that it does not go in-depth enough with the individual herbs and thier properties.

Summary: No Need For This Book
Review: I agree with one of the reviewers who said this book was a complete waste of money. I aslso like Scott Cunningham and I also own his Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs. If you have the Encyclopedia then you don't need this book and if you don't have it then buy the Encyclopedia rather than this book. In my opinion this book should have gone out of print when the Encyclopedia came out.

Summary: Not Cunningham's Best
Review: I can not say that I reccomend this book... at all. I consider it to have been a complete waste of my money. Don't get me wrong, I love Scott Cunningham, but because I own his Encyclopedia or Herbs, it renders Magical Herbalism completely useless. If you want a good book an herbalism... check out the other. Leave this one alone.

Summary: Don't Bother Buying This Book
Review: I have an extensive library of both herbal and herbal magick books, and I bought this book on a whim. I'm glad all I wasted was eight dollars. It is extremely limited, and if you are a beginner I suggest: "A Compendium of Herbal Magick" by Paul Beyerl for good information that is easy to read and understand. If all you want is a limited grasp on herbal knowledge it will do, but if you wish to become an accomplished herbalist and wildcrafter there are better buys.

Summary: A solid, basic grimoire
Review: Scott Cunningham does it again, providing a simple, easy to understand guide to magickal herbalism. Beginning with an introduction to tools and magick, Cunningham presents a detailed guide to the preparation and use of herbs in magick including making perfumes, oils, insense, amulets and charms.While I prefer to write my own spells, this book was very helpful in getting me started. But I can only give it three stars because it pales in comparison with his much more detailed "Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs."

Summary: Cunningham Mesmerizes Us Again!
Review: Scott Cunningham weaves a spell with Magical Herbalism that is as extraordinary as the man himself. A long-time practitioner of the Metaphysical Arts, Scott's writing makes you feel as if you're talking to a caring and wise friend. He gives a plethora of good, solid information as well as tiny journeys beyond words and into imagination. This book has it all, including a table of correspondences for colors and the hours of the night. Cunningham entertains as he educates, bringing the best in magic to his readers with lightness and joy. Magical Herbalism is no different. Both novice and veteran will find something of interest within its covers with extensive information in an easy-to-read format. You can learn how to make amulets, potions, incenses, oils, sachets, simples, infusions and a garden to be used for magical spells and rituals geared to a variety of purposes. This book is a treasure.

Summary: The Best!
Review: There really is nothing i can say thats bad about this book. A lot of information and folklore that keeps you on your toes. If there are any "beginner" Wiccans/Pagans out there that wants to add herbs to their magick, this book should be with you. Mr. Cunningham has great "common sense" writing effect that it will keep you wanting more. Very pleased by this book..well worth the time and the money :)
