 L. R. McBride combined his talents as a thorough researcher and botanical illustrator
with a life-long interest in folk medicine to produce this book of extraordinary value for
students of natural medicines and Hawaiiana. Remedies consist of fragments of the
knowledge of the medical kahuna and treatments that have come with immigrants from
around the world. Instructions are given for finding, identifying and using plants and herbs,
including the tools needed to do the job. The fully illustrated text features an alphabetical
listing of common ills and the natural products of the islands used to combat them. |
