Herbs have been valued for thousands of years for their health-giving, culinary and aromatic qualities. Today they are also loved as attractive additions to a garden, as a sweet-smelling form of decoration in the home and for their soothing and therapeutic effects. A Handful of Herbs celebrates herbs in all their beauty and variety. The book opens with illuminating profiles of 20 of the most popular herbs. The subject of Growing Herbs is then explored in detail by Barbara Segall. Living with Herbs presents a wealth of creative ideas from Rose Hammick for making the most of herbs in the home. A Handful of Herbs also offers 35 easy recipes for cooking with herbs by Louise Pickford. There is an A - Z of 75 common herbs, summarizing essential information about each plant, and the book concludes with a suppliers' directory.
