Echinacea by Christopher Hobbs (1995, Paperback)

Christopher Hobbs has a wonderful way of sharing information in a concise and informative manner. This 84-page book describes Echinacea in an incredibly thorough manner. This book includes 8 full-color photos plus many black and white photos for plant identification. It includes a diagram of HOW echinacea helps the immune system (the full body effects), and the appendices offer a literature and scientific review. Hobbs includes information about the American Indian uses of echinacea, medicinal uses, differences between the main species, history of herbal use, formulas, etc. All this and more in 84 short pages! I think the world of Hobbs' expertise and endeavor to own all of his herbal guides.
