Editorial Reviews
Review
“Katja Swift and Ryn Midura have written an inviting book on herbalism for beginners. I love that their herbal profiles include plants’ energetic qualities (like warming, drying, or cooling) and the many ways plants affect our health (like the way angelica can “ground” us). Katja and Ryn offer remedies for everything, from making a fever to breaking one. If you’re new to herbs, then this book is for you.”
–Henriette Kress, Herbalist, author of Practical Herbs, and founder of one of the Internet’s oldest herbal websites, Henriettes-Herb.com“The best herbalism books for beginners present not only the information we want to know but also information we need to know if we are to establish a strong foundation in herbal medicine.
