Can anyone recommend a good herb book? Preferably one with depth for each herb. I've been reading this one book (can't remember the name at the top of my head right now) and it listed a fairly good amount of herbs & spices but it lacks a few of the very common herbs and spices. I'm looking for one that pretty extensive with the properties, uses, what it's element is, what planet it's ruled by, it's binomial (Latin) name... What I like about the herb chapter in this book is that it doesn't just have one word for what the herb is for. IE: "Angelica - protective." Instead it goes on and says: "Protective, especially for children, when worn as an amulet & can be grown in the garden to protect both garden & home. It's also believed to give long life & protection against illness." Does such a book exist, or am I getting my hopes up to high & just need to do some grunt work and look each one up? TIA! =)
