The intriguing tales of the plants that have been used to heal and cure our bodies, brought to life with beautifully surreal illustrations from Alice Smith. Since the dawn of time, people have used plants as remedies, to both positive and deadly effect. These herbal treatments have become enshrined in folklore, in old wives' tales and in the curious names we have given local species. Many have also found their way into modern medicine cabinets – but not always in the form you would expect. This book imagines a physick garden of healing plants that have been used across the globe by different generations. But were Italian Renaissance women dicing with death when they dropped belladonna in their eyes? Can comfrey really be used to heal broken bones? And can St John’s Wort scare away more than bad spirits? Taking you around the body, from the brain to the bowels, The Physick Garden introduces 80 plants with curious medicinal pasts. With striking illustrations and lively tales, this book will show thatsometimes there is method in the madness.

Excerpt from Oxford Gardens: Based Upon Daubeny's Popular Guide to the Physick Garden of Oxford: With Notes on the Gardens of the Colleges and on the University Park 'Tis State employment: You a book compile That musters all the Natives of this Isle. And forein herbs surpriz'd in English ground Are taken Prisoners and together Bound. The Plants so neatly are describ'd, th' are known Better by these your leaves, than by their own. If men would view their roots too, here they'l see Them in their unstrain'd Etymologie. Here Plants collected are, and publish'd; thus You gather Plants, not for your selves but us. We'd crown your worth with Garlands but the flowrs That we combine, must be your own, not ours. When Garden Plants shall dye, yours most shall thrive And shall preserve, themselves, and you alive.
