WHAT THE EXPERTS ARE SAYING:
?How will the librarian classify this wise & delightful book that is, of course, about herbs & plants but with such a difference that the gardener, the cook, the chemist, the botanist, & the experimental scientist will find it rewarding reading? ...Books by this ?stalker? should find a place in all general collections.? ?
