Mastering Herbalism: A Practical Guide

Easy to grow, rich in history, and blessed with a thousand uses, herbs have delighted green thumbs as well as amateur gardeners for centuries. This comprehensive collection of herb lore and usage covers everything from cooking, beauty, and health, to aphrodisiacs, elixirs of life, and witchcraft.

Herbal gourmands will enjoy flavorful recipes for jams, marinades, sauces, soups, meats, fish, desserts, beer, wine, and teas. Sensualists can pamper themselves with homemade perfumes, incenses, and cosmetics. Those interested in natural medicine will find detailed descriptions of forty-nine herbs—including their habitats, properties, and applications—recognized for their healing qualities. Those fascinated by the possibility of manipulating their libido, increasing their longevity, or influencing the behavior of others will find instructions for traditional tonics and spells from the Dark Ages through the seventeenth century.

Featuring resources for buying herbs as well as tips on how to grow your own, Mastering Herbalism combines ancient knowledge and modern perspectives into an indispensable resource for staying healthy, looking your best, and living well the natural way.

Paul Huson’s books include The Mystical Origins of the Tarot, The Devil’s Picture Book, and the bestselling Mastering Witchcraft. He lives in Los Angeles, California.
