Kindle version riddled with errors

Apparently no one has proofread the kendle version of this for grammar or whether or not the correct words are being used. It reads like taking a book in a foreign language was translated by software incorrectly.

Other than the drawings I wish that were in color and more detailed. The descriptions, uses and medical knowhow for each plant is well written and I'm gonna be using it in my medicine garden for sure.
