It's OK...

Review by Jane Bauer, 2010-06-05

I WISHED IT WOULD HAVE MORE INFORMATION ON HERBS THAT GROW LOCALLY. OTHERWISE QUITE INFORMATIVE.

Excellent Must Have Resource!

Review by Ebyjo, 2010-04-13

I love this book! I first went through my yard finding plants that could be edible, or just for identification. I like how the book often will tell you what state or region of the US the plants/herbs are mainly found in. I do wish there were more pictures of what these plants look like as younger seedlings, or in the germination stages since this is Spring! The pictures and descriptions are for fully mature plants.

Medicinal plants and herbs: Eastern/Central (2nd edition)

Review by Patricia Noble, 2009-09-22

This book, one of the Peterson Field Guide series, should please naturalists, hikers through woods,meadows and thicket--and of course amateur and professional herbalists. The second edition fosters a new awareness of the need for ecological sensitivity and determination to preserve endangered species. Color photos are abundant. In addition to the indexes, there's a life list, similar to what you find in bird guides. I bought this as a companion to a herbal medicine handbook. It's a good companion for a walk, too, in woods or along roadsides.

Excellent

Review by Sean D. Curry, 2009-08-10

The book is an excellent reference for north eastern medicinal plants. Being a botanist, I was looking for something that clearly explains the medicinal purposes of plants. Useful in identifying specific plants, it gives detailed descriptions of almost all the parts of the plants so identification is made easier during each season. I highly recommend this book for both amateur and professional libraries alike.
