      Fabulous little book with a wealth of information. I really enjoyed reading.
    • 5/5
      It was clear and concise. I've read a lot of books like this, and I appreciate the simplicity. It's great to help beginners get started. I can't comment on accuracy or inaccuracy because I am too inexperienced on the subject. I'm happy that there was content on ointments, tinctures, and bath mixtures.
