Also included were a suggested plan for a herb garden, favorite culinary herbs, and recipes. The enduring popularity of this book resulted in a reprinting by The Practical Press in 1988 and the adoption of the cover woodblock of AMS as the icon used by The Herb Quarterly. This new edition of As True as the Barnacle Tree features an introduction, a list of selected sources, and an index.
