GREEN MAGIC: FLOWERS, PLANTS & HERBS IN LORE & LEGEND
Published by Ebury Press. 1st. 1977
Very good condition in a very good dustwrapper. The hidden meaning and special properties attributed to plants by men and women who have been disturbed by their mysterious beauty and who have perceived more than is apparent to the senses. To the botanist, the herbalist, the astrologer and the magician, the same plant may have an entirely different significance; it will stand for something different yet again to the myth maker, the poet and the mystic. Olive green cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w illustrations and a few colour illustrations. 200 pages including index.
Fading to spine and board edges but clean. Text block lightly browned, top edge foxed, contents clean. Pictorial dustwrapper is faded to spine, a little scuffed, old price label to front flap.
