Originally written in the Aztec language in 1552, this classic codex was the first herbal and medical text compiled in the New World, and as such is an extraordinarily rare and valuable document. The author was Martin de la Cruz, an Aztec physician, and his work was subsequently translated into Latin by his collaborator, Juan Badiano, an Aztec nobleman. The book was eventually translated into English in 1939 by William Gates. In these pages are centuries-old Aztec remedies for boils, hair loss, cataracts, sleep loss, sore throats, hiccoughs, gout, lesions, wounds, joint diseases, tumors and many other ailments. The text is illustrated with over 180 black-and-white figures of the plants along with 38 full-color illustrations made specially for the Gates edition. Also included are
