Exciting New Books for 2018
2018 continues to be exciting at Viking Sevenseas with two new books coming out mid-year. Murdoch has been working hard on an additional source book to his "Māori Healing and Herbal". It is call "Māori Healing Remedies- Rongōa Māori".
By quoting the words of many skilled practitioners of the art of herbal medicine, and by describing some of the spiritual practices and karakia associated, the book becomes a useful compendium of proven therapies, whether for arthritis, headaches, insect bites, rheumatism, skin complaints, sore throats, sprains, wounds etc. Headings for over 30 ailments. The book has beautiful photography by Phil Bendle that identifies many of the indigenous plants used by the Māori.
