Drug Plants Under Cultivation
Warner Webster Stockberger
Before medicine came from factories it came from fields, and somebody had to teach America to farm it. Stockberger's USDA handbook is that course: which drug plants pay, from aconite to aletris, how to plant, harvest, distill and market them, what yields to expect and where the commercial prospects lie. Precise, practical and quietly fascinating, it is farming with a pharmacist's stakes. For gardeners who want their beds to mean something more. Study it and look at an acre differently.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
