Table of Contents

Acknowledgments

A DEBT OF GRATITUDE is owed a number of individuals who helped to make this book a reality. Mr. Charles V. S. Borst of the Charles E. Tuttle Company in Rutland, Vermont has provided invaluable assistance in discovering additional sources of information, and as a consultant in innumerable capacities.

Mr. Sterling Emerson, Director of the Shelburne Museum, is especially thanked for making possible a photographic insight into the important herb resources at the museum. Among others at the museum to whom great appreciation is owed are Mr. Frank H. Wildung, consultant regarding the apothecarys preparation and use of herbs and the selection of artifacts for photographic purposes ; Mrs. Daisy Williams, an herb enthusiast of long standing, who so generously offered additional sources of information and graciously appeared in costume as she sifted the herbs before the hearth in the Old Stone House; and Einars J. Mengis, staff photographer.

Many thanks go to Dr. Alan S. Wilson, Vice Chancellor for Administration at the University of Hartford, for his remarks many years ago concerning the importance of bringing to light the many uses made of herbs in early American life. Dr. Wilson is himself an herb specialist of long standing and has one of the finest herb gardens in New England, at his home in Glastonbury, Connecticut.

Mr. Arthur F. Winslow, also of the University of Hartford, is especially thanked for the personal interest he took in locating so many rare and unusual books, pamphlets, and documents relating to the study of herbs. It is through his efforts and those of Mr. Borst at the Charles E. Tuttle Company in Rutland, Vermont that the author has been able to bring together what is considered perhaps the finest collection of rare sources now in existence.

Botanical information concerning the early use of herbs provided by Mrs. Peter Cascio of West Hartford, Connecticut is greatly appreciated by the writer. Insight into the location of available sources relative to the many ways in which herbs were utilized and prepared by the Indians has been most helpful.

A debt of gratitude is owed President Raymond Withey and Dean Andrew Vargish of Green Mountain College in Poultney, Vermont for their stimulating interest in the preservation and perpetuation of early American life.
