If you are interested in making your own incense, or just want to know more about incense and how it is made, you’ll want a copy of this book.”—eCauldron.net review “This is an excellent book for those with an interest in incense making or who are just starting out, and as Neal notes, even if you don’t end up making your own incense, you’ll have a much better idea of what goes into the process and which things to consider when purchasing off the shelf at your local shop.”—SpiralNature.com “As an herbalist, craftsperson, and teacher myself, I find this book essential . . .
