This book is nothing but a survey of previous literature. It's an exhaustive (and I mean EXHAUSTING) list of every mention of tobacco in the notes, logs, and published works of early explorers, scientists, and missionaries in South America. There were a few interesting things - I didn't fall asleep EVERY time I tried to read it, just almost every time. It took me 2 years to get through this book. Don't look here if you want to understand the role of tobacco in South American medicine.

As an ethno-botanist I can only say: excellent source. I learnt so much I never knew before.

Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2021
Even with a scientific background, I found this book extremely difficult to read. It’s more like a systemic research paper. Mainly quoting various tribes while not actually providing the full picture. I’m having a hard time bringing myself to finish the book. It’s extremely boring and difficult to follow.
