5.0 out of 5 stars Truly a Unique Book about a Unique Family of Plants, April 5, 2006
By 
J. Howard (Olympia, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Fascinating World of the Nightshades: Tobacco, Mandrake, Potato, Tomato, Pepper, Eggplant, Etc. (Paperback)
Tobacco, Mandrake, Potato, Tomato, Pepper, Eggplant, Henbane, Jimpson Weed, Petunia, "Wonderberry", Deadly Nightshade, Woody Nightshade, "Devil's Trumpet", Brugmansia, Chilli Peppers - all are in the same family of plants - the potato/nightshade family. This book tells the story of many of these plants, and ties them all together. The author has a scientific/historical background, and succeeds in painting a fascinating, intriguing picture of these plants, in a way that few authors would be able to do. After reading this book, you may be wondering just what a garden with all of these plants together might look like - certainly a unique phenomenon!
