This book is now one I am always excitedly flipping through! It is great to just read or have on hand when IDing plants. Corey does a great job explaining things and keeping the book fun and easy to understand but perfectly informative.

This book has a lot of details colored pictures and is very helpful. I definitely recommend it.

"Southeast Medicinal Plants" is a guide to foraging wild medicinal plants in the Southeast states. The author started by explaining how to identify and harvest a plant for medicinal use, how to process them, and how to make infusions, decoctions, tinctures, glycerites, oil infusions, and mushroom extracts. The main part of the book was an alphabetically organized list of 106 plants found in the region. For each listing, we're given the common names, the Latin name, the parts of the plant used, a description of how to identify the plant, where, when and how to gather the plant, the medicinal uses of the different parts the plant, how to ensure a future harvest, any safety cautions, and details about how to use the plant (the proportions used in a tincture, etc.). For each plant, there was a picture of the plant (often including its natural habitat) and usually a picture or two of distinguishing details, like the flower or a close-up of the leaf. Overall, this is an excellent resource for anyone interested in gathering and using medicinal plants from this area. It's very informative and provided practical information.I received an ebook review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.
