The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history, protection, and cultivation of American ginseng, a plant that has been used for medicinal purposes for centuries. The book begins with a brief history of American ginseng, detailing its use by Native Americans and its eventual commercialization in the United States. Nash then goes on to discuss the various threats to the plant's survival, including over-harvesting and habitat destruction. He also provides information on the laws and regulations that have been put in place to protect American ginseng.The second half of the book focuses on the cultivation of American ginseng, providing detailed instructions on how to grow and care for the plant. Nash covers everything from selecting the right soil and planting techniques to harvesting and processing the roots for market. Overall, American Ginseng: Its Commercial History, Protection, and Cultivation is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history, protection, and cultivation of this important medicinal plant. It provides a wealth of information on the plant's commercial use, as well as practical advice for those looking to grow and harvest their own ginseng.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
