Very Good with Templates of Most S.W. Plants
Review created: 11/03/06(updated 11/06/08)

I live in New Mexico and we have so many different types of plants here in the desert that I am very unfamiliar with. I decided that I needed some sort of field identification guide with regards to plants here that have been used throughout ancient times for medicinal purposes with a special reference to healing the body. This book does give the authors personal hands-on knowledge, as well as the ancient past, regarding many species of plants. Michael Moore the author clearly defines most of the plants located in the mountain west with properties that are good as well as evil and poisonious. The only fault of the book for me was that it has a few beautiful color plates of some of the plants. I would have liked all the plants to be in color for much easier identification for me personally. This was a very reasonably priced book to be found on eBay that could be added to a novice herbalist or perhaps an experienced herbalist library.
