Pros & Cons
Pros
A reclaiming of heritage, this book is a journey into the history, culture, theory and practical application of folk medicine. Phillis is the most talented herbalist of her generation. Her personal stories are entertaining and instructive.
It really encapsulates the spirit and history of the south. Both practical and enlightening. Just love anything by phyllis light.
