Charming, delightful, and a great companion for gardeners and naturalists alike.--Booklist
Lavender, basil, hyssop, balm, sage, rue -- the thinking gardener's guide to herbs. Writer/naturalist Henry Beston, a founding father of the environmental movement, believed that a strong connection to nature is essential. It is only when we are aware of the earth and of the earth as poetry that we truly live, Beston says in his now-classic Herbs and the Earth. In this book, Beston shares one of those connections as seen through the oldest group of plants known to gardeners.
