This one's title was 'The Herbal Handbook for Farm and Stable' by my favorite author Juliette De Bairacli Levi. Juliette is a famous herbalist who has traveled all over the world collecting herbal wisdom from the gypsies and peasants.
Her books have no-nonsense knowledge about herbs, their uses and how to treat humans and animals with them. I've had this particular book for about four years now, and just one look at it could tell you that it was a favorite. Numerous pages were dog eared, the cover was curled in half, some of the pages were falling out, and then finally, it split straight down the spine.
For a long time I kept it in my hope chest where it would be safe from harm, but now I'm working on ripping all the pages out, punching holes in them and putting them in a small three ringed binder. Slow work, but it will be worth it.
