Detalles del libro
Gabrielle Hatfield has over many years gathered a wealth of material from manuscripts, letters, diaries and personal interviews which is here brought together, giving a vivid and detailed picture of the use of domestic remedies in Britain from c. 1700 to the present." "Memory, Wisdom and Healing is not a manual of herbal healing, but much of the huge folk knowledge of plant remedies is reproduced, including the treatment of wounds with mallow, the use of goosegrass for skin conditions, couch grass for cystitis, plantain for bites and stings and dandelion sap for warts. Illustrated with photographs and drawings, this book will be an invaluable contribution to the study of the folklore of modern Britain as well as a fascinating document of social history.
