The Meaning of Herbs by Ann Field

Buy at Amazon

A small, beautifully done hardcover book that offers information, tips and lore on all herbs. The photographs and illustrations are incredibly beautiful and colourful, making this book not only an interesting read but a visual treat. If you grow herbs or just adore them (I’m in favour of lavender, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and basil!) this is a book you’ll appreciate as it lets you know interesting bits about the herbs you use, whether for cooking, linen waters, cleaning or health.
