"Perhaps a gardener would understand that Warren Bobrow wants to help with your aches and pains. After all as a gar-tender, the methods of healing go back to the earliest times through bitters, tonics, elixirs and teas. All come from the garden. And the alcohol? Well, that may be the most active ingredient of all! Apothecary Cocktails attempts to discover the association between the healing plants in the garden to the cocktail bars of the present.Even if you aren't hurting somewhere on your body, just a look through this beautifully written and photographed book is bound to make you feel better." -- Brent Ridge and Josh Kilmer-Purcell, Founder, Beekman 1802, "Perhaps a gardener would understand that Warren Bobrow wants to help with your aches and pains.

- d***d (794)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book is in like new condition; better than described. It was packaged securely in a bubblewrap envelope, not merely a plastic bag. The book was listed for a fantastic price, too. Thank you, HPB-Emerald, for another perfect transaction from a truly excellent Seller!
- i***a (85)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook arrived quickly and in described condition. Packaging was just a waterproof mailer that arrived already open on one end, but the book suffered no damage from exposure. Likely, it was caused during the shipping process. The price was incredibly fair for the condition, and shipping was free. It cost far less than ordering it through their company website. Would absolutely buy from them again.
- 1***r (747)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseNot the edition I was looking for, but not the seller's fault. They listed it correctly, I just mistakenly assumed there was only one B&N edition. Seller shipped quickly and was quick to help set up a return. Not my first purchase from them. Their products are usually great and their service is always excellent.
