Herb Book: The Most Complete Catalog of Herbs Ever Published By John Lust

The Herb Book is John Lust’s broad reference to herbs and their uses. Historical background leads into numbered plant entries with botanical descriptions and more than two hundred seventy-five line drawings.

Further sections consider culinary, aromatic, cosmetic and dye uses alongside traditional remedies and folklore. Historical medicinal uses are not evidence of safety or effectiveness; accurate identification, toxicity and interaction checks are essential.
