In Mugworts , Rago traces the "roots" of herbal history - from the pyramids, through the dark forest of western Europe, and into the New World. She speaks of the learned monks and Wise Women who dispensed the herbs, along with the lore surrounding them. You will read about Shakespeare's favorite herbs, and the deadly herbs from the "dark side of the hedgerow." This book is a must for the historian, folklorist, and herbalist alike. In addition to a glowing herbal history and wonderful charms, the book concludes with an alphabetical "Compendium of Herbs." In the compendium you'll find the uses and stories of over 150 herbs.
