Would you like to know *which* 15 herbs?

I wish the publisher's review would have given this basic bit of information. Here you go:

1. Angelica
2. Basil
3. Catnip
4. Chives
5. Dill
6. Fennel
7. Marjoram
8. Mint
9. Oregano
10. Parsley
11. Rosemary
12. Sage
13. Savory
14. Tarragon
15. Thyme

This tiny book is a good albeit brief introduction to herb gardening, allocating about one tiny page to each herb. As one reviewer pointed out, much of the information can be obtained on the internet for free.

Very useful and more informative than more expensive books

Love the Storey Country Wisdom Bulletins. These are great because they are inexpensive and they offer basic useable information that most people can use. What I loved about this bulletin aside from the lovely illustrations of so many herbs, many I grow, is the fact the authors give a history of the herb and its origins. As well as how its grown, harvested and used. For the price which is so inexpensive, you actually get more usable information that you do in many if not most expensive gardening books. Of which I own many.

Since 1973, Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletins have offered practical, hands-on instructions designed to help readers master dozens of country living skills quickly and easily. There are now more than 170 titles in this series, and their remarkable popularity reflects the common desire of country and city dwellers alike to cultivate personal independence in everyday life.
