The Cultivators Handbook of Natural Tobacco: Second Edition (Tobacco Culture)

A very complete book on growing tobacco. Historical data, besides a lot of hints. A must book in every bookstore for people who wants to be self-sustained in terms of tobacco! Only a failure: why the use of NPK products? I thing that part could be removed, and use only organic fertilizers.

Very helpful hippy book.VERY VERY detailed

It's the best book I've read about growing tobacco. Bill talks about all the steps of this topic, from where to buy seeds, to final curing process. You can read about old time growers tips, how to flavor your leaves with different aromas, how to cut suckers and about topping. The author wrote about tobacco lobbies and problems with them too. Personally I think he did a real good job with this book. Absolutely recommended.

I am growing several Nicotina Rustica plants in the garden from the Cherokee Nation Seed program. This book has been an excellent guide to help my so far.

Interesting but not a manual. The book needs to be organized better. Basically just full of tips & experiences. Still good for tobacco grower but not so much for tobacco smoker.

This book was a little disappointing. I was expecting something a bit more focused on the growing and processing of tobacco. Much of the book is simply excerpts from public domain works on tobacco planting. The author merely preents these highly repetitive excerpts without drawing the information together. I could understand one or two excerpts by way of illustration, but it seems the author just inserted dozens of repetitive excerpts to fill up space. His time would have been better spent providing a general analysis and planting/ processing guidelines for the home grower. All-in-all, this book was such a pain to read, that I honestly can't say if I learned much about the subject. I think I probably, eventually, learned some very basic things about growing tobacco.

Fast shipping, Item as advertised

This book have a lot of good information about growing, cure, fermenting and flavoring tobacco and history of his use. Is well writing and with the kindle edition If you do not have a Kindle you can get an app from Amazon at no cost that will enable you to read Kindle ebooks on any computer with good quality.

Good book, lots of info.
