Three words:  Worth every penny.

Although getting into $25.00 for a book these days isn't unusual, it does put a bit of a crunch in the wallet.  I mean, it *is* 1/4 of $100.  This book, however, is one of the very few +$20.00 investments that I eagerly and enthusiastically encourage all Wiccans and Pagans to make. 

Housed within it's large, generous pages is a plethora of amazing information, from recipes to magickal uses of herbs to lore and muse surrounding the wonderfully useful and versatile plants in our world.  Cross-referencing common uses of herbs, as well as providing an alphabetically listing of the most common herbs, this book weaves a delightful web of knowledge around the reader, providing gentle folk lore and easy instruction in the ritual use of the different herbs, as well as several different common variations of names for each entry.  Absolutely no magickal library is completely without this book.
