    A while back I baught this book because I was very interested in how you grow and prepare herbs for usage.​
    Despite its age, this is one of the easiest to follow books on Herbs and their practical uses available. The 31 most commonly used herbs are profiled in a concise manner. Each herb section includes the typical Latin and growing and cultivation information. But more than that, each section also includes in-depth descriptions of the plants at various growth stages, the history and mythology surrounding the herb, harvesting and processing details and a complete list of medicinal and cosmetic uses.

    A complete herb guide, Herbs; Their Cultivation and Usage showcases seeding and planting preparation and details which plants to grow well as companion plants. This is an excellent book for anyone interested in cultivating herbs for medicinal and cosmetic uses or for cooking.​
    Have you heard of this book, what did you think about it? ​

    There are several spelling, grammar and punctuation errors. "Didges face", "meer thaught" and a bunch of others that are easy to fix.

    You sometimes give useless detail;
    "The cold night air whipped around Didges face as he kept watch for any signs of an ambush, he would be waking Keima in roughly two hours for her shift."

    "for any signs of an ambush" could be ommited as could "roughly".

    Normal rabbits don't "stomp"

    "Suddenly he hears a mans shout near-by", but far enough away that running is an appropriate search technique?

    I assume that the incompetance of leaving the area to investigate a shout is part of Didge being the comic relief.

    The short section you gave us didn't give us a picture of the storyline.

    I'm guessing that a moderator may move this thread to "writing." The people who frequent that forum may have thoughts that are more helpful for you.
