Herbs For All Seasons

Herbs For All Seasons (1977) by R. Hemphill – Penguin Books
Purveyed proudly by Crappy Old Books – Specialists in the slightly musty.

Step into the earthy, aromatic world of herbs with this 1977 Penguin paperback from R. Hemphill, where parsley isn’t just a garnish and sage has more to offer than wisdom. Herbs For All Seasons is a charming guide to growing, using, and occasionally over-boiling your way through a kitchen garden. Packed with old-school wisdom, rustic remedies, and botanical enthusiasm, it’s perfect for anyone who thinks supermarkets just don’t smell right.

Our copy? Let’s just say it’s aged like a fine chamomile—creased, yellowed, and with the kind of spine crack that says "well-loved" (or possibly "sat on"). Possibly contains a dried thyme sprig between pages 37 and 38. No promises.

Well preserved book.
