Opium Poppy Garden

by William Griffith
Opium Poppy Garden is the only book available that describes the cultivation, harvest, and pharmacology of opium in a format that combines literary and instructional writing. The heart of the book is the tale of Ch' ien, a young Chinese man who travels from Costa Rica to Colombia to grow an opium garden in the manner his Taoist grandfather taught him. The story, along with "The Cultivators's Diary" and the technical appendix, provide the reader with a working knowledge of this plant.
