The Cultivators Handbook of Natural Tobacco: Second Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781451514643)

Native Americans believe that Tobacco is one of the most sacred gifts of the Great Spirit to his People, along with corn, beans and squash. I also believe that tobacco is a great gift of the great spirit of the natural world, and I want people who enjoy tobacco to be able to liberate themselves from the thrall of the multinational so-called "Tobacco companies," whose products really have nothing to do with the sacred herb and are nothing more than industrialized poison.

Now I'm sharing my years of experience raising natural Tobacco in what I hope is a useful, interesting and thoughtful book - The Cultivators Handbook of Natural Tobacco. As I hope you'll come to see, the ultimate aim of this book is to make it possible for smokers to no longer be enslaved to criminal corporations for their personal supply of pure, natural tobaccos.In addition to sharing my own growing experience. This is not a "How-To" book but a "How It's Been Done For Ages" book.

I've reached far into the past to find tobacco growing books written by masters of the subject, from Cuba to the Philippines, from America to Brazil. In an all-new Section Two I've gathered together the best advice from these old-time masters regarding every aspect of Tobacco cultivation, from which varieties grow best in which soils and environments, to the carefully guarded secrets of curing and flavoring the primo leaves of this unusual plant. Also, I'll give you an internet address where you can download all of these original, invaluable tobacco resources for free in PDF format for easy reading on your computer or any reading device.

I wrote this book to offer you the accumulated knowledge of generations of Tobacco growers. From them you'll learn how to grow a personal crop of the finest heirloom organic tobacco, whether for personal consumption, for sharing with a family member who is trapped in the death spiral of smoking commercial so-called tobacco products, or for beginning a small business as a natural tobacco entrepreneur selling your products at a local farmers market or over the internet.

You will not only learn the ancient techniques of Native American tobacco growers, but you'll also find information on the techniques developed in past centuries by master tobacco growers around the world. You'll discover that growing your own heirloom natural tobacco can be fun, and in spite of the impression most of us have, tobacco is easy to grow, harvest, cure and enjoy on a very small scale - even just one or two plants.

I hope that this book will inspire you to become a native natural tobacco grower and, even if only in some small way, help to take back for yourself and your friends one of the great sources of wealth and pleasure in the world, long ago stolen by the White race from the Native Americans and later stolen by giant corporations from the people who live on and work the sacred soil of Mother Earth.
