- Hatfield, Audrey Wynne, 1898-
- Series:
- "The term 'Herb' rightly applies to any soft-stemmed plant, but it is now popularly used for those that are useful in cookery, or for their aromatic scent or medicinal value. Thus it includes woody-stemmed bushes like Rosemary, Lavender, Thyme, Sage, Winter Savory, Bay, etc. ... this book is limited to the comparatively few 'culinary herbs' which give most pleasure today, and are easy to grow or obtain either fresh or dried."--Introduction.
