My Herbal Library

I had someone comment on how they would love to browse my herbal library...

Well... here is my list ;) I do not consider it comprehensive, or complete. Some of the books are not Christian in content... and I have blogged elsewhere on my frustration at how much of the Christian society tends to dismiss herbs out of hand because they think it is witchcraft and now the best herbal information is often found in a pagan book. I wish someone would write some more Catholic books! I have highlighted the ones I think best :D
I love the herbal Almanacs... not because of the pagan influence, but because they have some wonderful recipes and information on herbs in there.
