Crammed with great information and illustrations.

 

Lavender is truely the unversal herb.  Way back in the middle ages, leather workers who used avender oil in the preparation of their skins for shoes and gloves were protected from the Bubonic Plague.  Who knows what healing power lavender would have now against many of the new pandemic plagues?  LAvender neat on burns cools immediately and slathered on a burn every few minutes until the burn/redness/heat dissappears, no scarring will happen!
