Product Description
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1956. Hardcover. Very Good in Fair jacket. Second edition.
Herbs for the Mediaeval Household is a lovely book first published by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1943. Handsomely designed and printed on special heavy paper made for this second edition of 3000 copies, it offers an appealing account of herbs, many in use from medieval times until today.
The sprightly text is illustrated with nearly a hundred beautiful woodcuts and covers the cooking, healing, poisonous, and aromatic qualities of herbs. Some, of course, may be used in any or all of the aforementioned applications.
We offer here a Very Good, clean copy, showing only some darkening to the case spine. The jacket is missing most of the paper from the spine and shows chipping to the corners and edges otherwise. Fortunately, the text is unaffected.
