From Booklist
Bown points out that some of the earliest herb gardens were planted 2,000 years ago in Egypt, where chamomile was an ingredient of the embalming oil used to mummify pharaohs. The author describes 60 herbs and 55 variations, all of them easy to grow. Each entry includes the herb's common and scientific name, history and uses, planting tips, and basic care information. A color photograph of each herb augments the text. A brief chapter describing types of herb gardens is followed by one on creating an herb garden. A handy pull-out chart gives information on each plant's soil and sun requirements, hardiness, propagation, and maintenance. George Cohen
