I don't know of any off hand. The best I can say is just keep your eyes open. Check out every bookstore when you get a chance, and ask the workers if they know of any, or if they can order one for you. Also, keep an eye on yardsales - you can find nearly everything in those. O.o

I have an herbal but it doesn't have illustrated pictures of the herbs like I want. I am going to the bookstore this saturday so that will be on my list. I have an awesome coupon, spend $75 and get $10 off. I intend on doing some mucho book buying! Also, there is a nutritionist author person speaking. The only other herb books I have are
The A to Z Guide to Healing Herbal Remedies
The Field Guide to Herbs & Spices
The Scientific Validation of Herbal Medicine

Hm... I recommend "Herbs for Dummies". We have a book-list in the Sticky of Doom, but I never update it. >> Bad kiichan.

I have the "Complete Guide to Natural Healing" series, both binders. They're an excellent source of information, and highly helpful. But they're not cheap, they consist of a series of cards (even I dont' have them all) my grandfather said he spend a couple hundred dollars on them over the years.
International Masters Publishers AB
The Complete Guide to Natural Healing IMP AB
Produced under license by IMP Inc.
Printed in USA
It's chapters include:
Medicinal Plants
Therapeutic Teas
Aromatherapy
Floral Essences
Homeopathy
Herbs & Spices
Natural Beauty
Nature's Rememdies
Your Garden Pharmacy
Ailments & Treatments
Self-Healing Techniques
Gentle Diagnoses
Alternative Therapies
I really haven't looked up much about how you go about obtaining the different cards for it. I only have what my grandpa gave me for my 16th birthday 3 years ago.

Go to Otakars or waterstones or WHSmith in your local area and look and if they don't have it b***h about it. Best way I know, either that or purchase it from ebay or something

New Book of Herbs, by Jekka McVicar.
I love this book so much, I took it out of the library like last year, and I still haven't returned it. I have to intention of saying I lost it, and just paying for it. They include pictures, and it's amazing. heart
They teach you to make beauty products, stuff for the kitchen, garden, and they have in the back, the medicinal properties of the herbs too! *dies in love*
