Barnes and Noble republished this herbal ; both volumes in one book. I saw
several copies for sale at that store a few months ago. The price was an
unbelievable $8.00.

> "A Modern Herbal", by Mrs. Grieve is a very useful book as a second or
> third reference. It has a very comprehensive description of many herbs,
> including the chemical constituents known at the time it was written
> (1931). I do not recommend it as a first herbal reference, because the
> indexing is not sufficient - there is no index for symptoms or general
> uses, for example, which are really useful in a primary reference. Very
> good for backup, though. It should be available from Dover in a 2 volume
> set (I got mine in the 70's, but I think it is still available).
