About the Book

The Vine Rhyme Herbal, written and compiled by Jeffrey D. Mason, Master Herbalist, is a masterpiece of poetic enchantment. In the book you will find an electric infusion of legend, myth, magic and medicine as never before presented in the history of herbals. It is an artistic and skillfully crafted record of over 128 plants and other agents for use in magic and medicine. A divinely inspired and fascinating book that promises to transport the reader into a far distant time and place, where legend is king and magic abounds. Truly, the Vine Rhyme Herbal offers a modern scientific understanding of healing plants with all of the rustic charm of legend, myth and magic written in poetic form with delightfully magnificent illustrations of every herb from field to garden. This book is guaranteed to leave the reader with the feel one would expect, had they unearthed and ancient script of magic and medicine, covered in cobwebs and the collection of the millennial dusts of antiquity.



About the Author

Beginning at age sixteen, he yearned to learn from the earth which brings forth every herb of the field. Taking knowledge gathered and harvested from personal research, study and practice of his own, as well as that of others for thousands of years, Jeffrey D. Mason M.H. and C.Ht. has combined his four passions, medicine, natural healing, herbs and poetry to present an herbal filled with scientific details and folklore. Combining these passions together brought forth The Vine Rhyme Herbal to full bloom. The intent is to offer the reader the science of medicine while retaining the folkloric uses of nature's bounty.

Jeffrey wrote The Herbal Codex and has written numerous articles for magazines on a wide-range of subject matters but is most pleased with those published by Unlimited Human. He conducts nature walks for the purpose of identifying herbs in the wild. He is a guest speaker and teacher on the subjects of herbs and hypnotherapy.

Jeff lives in Boise, Idaho with his wife Shana and is the father of eight children and one grandchild.
