Victorian Pharmacy: Rediscovering Home Remedies and Recipes by Jane Eastoe, Ruth Goodman

3.0

A lot of interesting content, but lots of weird 2-page spreads of photographs of modern day people in victorian garb posing as if for a stock photo??? The design is generally nice, just, wh...y. Would also have liked some more info on the recipes which are given as useable (read: nonpoisonous) -- are they effective at all, if so why, etc. This is more of a historical book than a scientific one.
