The stories that follow cover a range of topics, from Burbank's early experiments with potatoes to his work with fruit trees, flowers, and cacti. Throughout the book, Slusser emphasizes Burbank's dedication to his work and his belief in the power of nature to provide solutions to human problems. She also highlights his generosity and willingness to share his knowledge with others.
