When I review a book, I spend a few days foregoing all other books and focus on the book at hand. For me, the reason is simple: I want to give each book the consideration that authors deserve. But before I discuss Michael Brown’s work, though, I do need to mention the book’s graphic designer(s). I don’t know who designed the book, only that SJmagic Design Services of India was responsible for the typesetting. And let me tell you, they did a beautiful job with the type. The author included his own color photographs, with many of them being full-page images. But whoever was responsible for the actual graphic design of the book—the placement of photographs, the design of the plants next to the page numbers, and etc.—did a fantastic job. The minute that I opened it, I said to myself: Now THIS is what I expect from a non-fiction book on herbs and plants.

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars This was a real treat to read. Fantastic pictorial and very informative description on each plant. I believe I will be using this book for my future foraging and gardening activities. I loved the "perks" section, I found that having extra info on plant benefits was very valuable.

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars This was a great book for people who love foxes and want to learn about foxes. It was well written and does a great job in keeping me reading. I had a great time when reading this and enjoyed the way Chloe Petrylak wrote this. I'm so glad I was able to read this.

I wasn't sure what to expect and was delightfully impressed with this book. The author sounds very knowledgeable and gave much more information than I anticipated. There is information on environmental issues and composting and decorative items to recycle ~ something for everyone! I enjoyed the historical aspect of the book as well as the tips, tricks and educational aspects. This would make a great gift for any gardener.
