I have it; it is a beautifully done coffee-table book, but I do not have
enough knowledge of herbs to be able to say how good the information is.  To
me, it seems pretty much based on explaining to the general public what the
herbs are that are mentioned in the show, and what else might have been in a
monastic garden.  If you already have some basic knowledge in this area, it
is probably too general for what you need.
