Book Reviews of The Cannabible
Book Review: Jason King---a new bud of mine!
Summary: 5 Stars
"Do what you love and the reward shall follow..." Jason King successfully combines this philosophy with his extensive knowledge of history, geography, biology, sociology, horticulture and travel with his extraordinary talent and passion for communications and photography, to produce this visually stimulating tome, now on proud display in my home. While absorbing each stunning page, cover to cover, I find the text and photographs quite mind-boggling, well-researched, excellently documented, dazzlingly illustrated, informative and downright fascinating. Of special interest are the compare-and-contrast information on the effects each strain offers, the scientific terms for the differing categories grown, and the visuals by which to identify both common and exotic strains from both the USA and abroad. Rarely have I enjoyed a reference book more! Bravo, Jason!!! I plan to purchase several more autographed, hardcover volumes as gifts, as well as to check out Robert Connell Clarke's newest book. Bring on the sequel of The Cannabible, by Jason King, a new bud of mine!
Summary of The Cannabible
Astounded by the lack of books dedicated to the wondrous variety of his favorite plant, author Jason King set out on a four-year mission to document the world's finest cannabis. Traveling around North America, Hawaii, and Europe, he captured over 1,500 strains on film (benevolently sampling a good number as well). Here in THE CANNABIBLE, images of the best 200 varieties are included alongside engaging and informative descriptions of their aromas, flavors, effects, and origins. Study this holy writ and figure out whether Purple Haze, Magic Kush, and the "P" is da kine or da shwag; learn which strains will give you the munchies or the wobbles; discover how appropriately named are Doc Kevorkian, Black Widow, and Cat Piss; and find out which strains are good for productivity, creativity, or just sitting on the couch, staring into space. With over 400 mind-blowing, full-color photographs of the world's most beautiful nugs, this book will have you on the floor, bowing to the mighty bud-dha.? A chapter contributed by one of the world's most studious pot smokers, Rob Clarke, provides an in-depth explanation of the history of marijuana breeding.
? A unique reference guide, the first of its kind.
