Summary: Useful information!
Comment: There are some things contained in this book which are quite useful to practioners who are familiar and unfamiliar with roots and herbs, their original uses, and the different names specifically given to them on different continents. It amazes me how much I have unwittingly settled for substitutions I've purchased in occult shops! THANK YOU!

Summary: That's it she's a God!
Comment: I will not waste the reader's time praising the glories of the book-others have already done that. However, I will give the reader some clue as to what you'll find in this book.
The author gives the scientific names, common names,and magical uses. The author clears up some of the common mistakes that are made concerning herbs. For example, Balm of Gilead Buds are often given in place of Adam & Eve Root according to the author either by mistake or to deceive the buyer. The author provides plenty of information so you won't/can't be mislead. This is only a small example of the useful information the author gives.
The author also gives lots of spells 'tricks' listed under each herb for practical use. The book also covers information on loadstone's, ammonia,etc... This is truly a rich source of information on traditional Hoodoo.
