This practical, full-color guide to the sustainable harvest and use of North American medicinal plants emphasizes principles of ethical wildcrafting and the herbalist's connection with the earth. Profiles of 52 species of medicinal plants, accompanied by color photographs and detailed line drawings tell how to identify, harvest, handle, and propagate herbs, how to make and use herbal remedies, and when to choose alternative or adjunct herbal medicines. A resource list and biliography direct aspiring herbalists to schools, sources of supplies, and more information.
