Oooo! Thanks, Natasha! I just became a volunteer, would this type of book be too much for my first attempt at doing what we do?

Just submitted The Green Pharmacy Herbal Handbook by James A. Duke.
I have done hours and probably days and days worth of work pre-validating and perfecting this gem of a book. It has been read through, headers stripped, page numbers protected and junk characters removed. All fractions and numbers have been verified and are correct. It has LOADS of Latin words.

Here's the back cover info:

In this handy companion to his best-selling book The Green Pharmacy, leading herbal authority James A. Duke, Ph.D.., delivers the lowdown on virtually every healing herb available in today's marketplace: its description and history, therapeutic uses, medicinal properties, prescription counterparts, dosage options, safety and effectiveness rating, and precautions.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Dr. Duke's inimitable folksy tone and friendly manner shine throughout The Green Pharmacy Herbal Handbook, making it as entertaining to read as it is practical. The most thorough,and comprehensive herb reference of its kind, the handbook was culled from the thousands of entries in Dr. Duke's database of the world's medicinal plants. The database, which he began during his career as a top botanist with the USDA, is a lifelong project for Dr. Duke and has become a major reference resource for herbalists worldwide.

Happy Validating!
