by Elizabeth S. Hayes. Softbound, 266 pages, 6" x 9". This book begins with the "Big Four" of the old spice trade: pepper, cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg; and proceeds to uncover and display the delights of allspice, bay, ginger, cardamom, vanilla, capers, capsicum and other spices, as well as herbs and more. A special section treats the varieties and uses of coffee, tea, cocoa, sugar and salt. A spice chart, and a chart for herbs and beverages, list suggested uses for all plants discussed. Amateur herbalists, gardeners, chefs and landscape designers will appreciate the last chapter devoted to growing herbs, hints for preparing, drying, freezing and thawing herbs, and rules for judging herb exhibits. Interested readers and budding herb-hunters will find no more loving introduction to the art than this book.
