Book Synopsis The Heirloom Tobacco Garden by : Timothy A. James
Download or read book The Heirloom Tobacco Garden written by Timothy A. James and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you only want to grow ornamental varieties of tobacco with huge showy leaves and dramatic sprays of colorful flowers as landscape plants around the house, or as container specimens for casual conversation around the barbeque, you won't need this book. The tobacco plant is as easy to grow as tomatoes or green peppers. Once it gets started, it grows with very basic care and attention. If you are not a tobacco smoker, or do not use any tobacco products, this book is not for you. However, if you are a tobacco smoker, or use other tobacco products, if you want to know how to grow natural tobacco and harvest it in such a way that it produces fine high quality tobacco leaf, and if you want to know how to dry and cure it properly for smoking or other uses, then this book is for you! If you don't smoke or otherwise use tobacco products, the joys of heirloom tobacco gardening need not be a reason for you to start. It is for those of us already bound to this deadly plant of the nightshade family to take responsibility for its cultivation. The home tobacco gardener joins ranks with a long diverse history of growers from ancient tobacco shamans to contemporary rural tobacco farmers. The heirloom tobacco garden is a valued tradition just as useful and rewarding for tobacco users today as it has been for ages. My first crop of home grown tobacco was an experiment. I had started smoking a pipe, to break the cigarette habit, and found pipe tobaccos much more flavorful and satisfying, and even less expensive than generic cigarettes. At some point I thought, wouldn't it be great to grow my own natural tobacco and have plenty of good quality leaf to smoke and never have to pay for it again. I looked into it further, found out more about how to do it, and that it is perfectly legal in the USA to grow up to 1/10th an acre per household for personal use, tax free! So, with basic gardening knowledge, I grew a small tobacco garden in containers on my backyard terrace. While it grew, I researched into how to grow and process tobacco, and how to cure it for smoking. I learned many things from that first tobacco garden, as I fought the caterpillars for the first crop, and finally harvested a surprising amount of leaf. After curing, I allowed it to age for a couple of anxious months before the first smoke. The first smoke was a little harsh, but the aroma and flavor was so fresh and rich. I have literally never smoked anything like it before. Several of my smoking friends agreed - it was the best tobacco they had ever smoked! Tobacco mellows with age, and the flavor and aroma just gets richer and smoother and more satisfying. I grew other crops of different varieties of tobacco, and gradually over the years learned much more by further research and experience. Now, my smoking friends wait anxiously with me for a sample of the next crop from my tobacco garden. It is an indescribable experience to discover different varieties of unblended tobacco have their own distinctive taste and aroma. This is the heirloom tobacco garden. By growing my own natural tobacco, I not only dramatically improved the quality of tobacco I smoked, but eventually even changed how and why I smoke. Natural tobacco grown in the home garden is incomparable to commercial tobacco. It is richer in flavor and packs a much more powerful punch. A much smaller amount of natural tobacco is enjoyed much more over a longer period of time. Heirloom tobacco from the home garden is without a doubt the best quality natural tobacco anywhere in the world. Tobacco is not a particularly difficult plant to grow. Across the world and over the ages, tobacco was grown traditionally on farms and in family gardens. It was cultivated by Native American Indians for centuries before colonialists in North America grew so much of it that it became one of their first commodities exported to Europe. The historical record notes that tobacco from the colonies became preferred in Eur

Download or read book How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease written by United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.

Download or read book Smokeless Tobacco and Some Tobacco-specific N-nitrosamines written by IARC Working Group on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Risks to Humans and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2007 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eighty-ninth volume of the IARC Monographs is the third and last of a series on tobacco-related agents. Volume 83 reported on the carcinogenicity of tobacco smoke and involuntary smoking (second-hand smoke or environmental tobacco smoke) (IARC 2004a). Volume 85 summarized the evidence on the carcinogenic risk of chewing betel quid with and without tobacco (IARC 2004b). That volume explored the variety of products chewed in South Asia and other parts of the word that contain areca nut in combination with other ingredients, often including tobacco. In this eighty-ninth volume, the carcinogenic risks associated with the use of smokeless tobacco, including chewing tobacco and snuff, are considered in a first monograph. The second monograph reviews some tobacco-specific nitrosamines. These agents were evaluated earlier in Volume 37 of the Monographs (IARC 1985) and information gathered since that time has been summarized and evaluated.
Download or read book Tobacco Harvest written by Wendell Berry and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With his striking photographs, James Baker Hall powerfully conveys the physical experience of a Kentucky tobacco harvest. He captures the process from the tractor ride out to the field, where rows of tobacco stretch toward the horizon, to the careful, precise cutting of each individual plant, and finally, to hauling the crop away and housing it in the barn. Hall's snapshots of the "gathering of many hands" who come to help and the time-honored practices of the harvest capture the end of an era. Hall's stunning work is accompanied by an essay from Wendell Berry, which provides an insightful meditation on the shifting nature of humans' relationships with the land and with each other. Berry laments the economic, political, and societal changes that have forever altered Kentucky's rich agricultural traditions. He adds a deeply personal perspective to Hall's eloquent visual testimony, sharing memories of stories told, laughs shared, meals savored, and brief moments of rest and refreshment well earned. Tobacco Harvest: An Elegy is a candid portrait of a bygone way of life—a time before cheaper tobacco imported from abroad and a public awareness of the health risks associated with tobacco use nearly destroyed the industry in the United States. Berry's words and Hall's photographs offer an understanding of the high standards and perfectionism required to produce a good harvest, as well as a glimpse of the hot sun, the dirt, and the people hard at work.
Book Synopsis Tobacco Control and Tobacco Farming by : Wardie Leppan
Download or read book Tobacco Control and Tobacco Farming written by Wardie Leppan and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bulk of the world’s tobacco is produced in low- and middle-income countries. In order to dissuade these countries from implementing policies aimed at curbing tobacco consumption (such as increased taxes, health warnings, advertising bans and smoke-free environments), the tobacco industry claims that tobacco farmers will be negatively affected and that no viable, sustainable alternatives exist. This book, based on original research from three continents, exposes the myths behind these claims.

The authors follow the company from its incorporation 1918 through one of the first hostile takeover attempts in American business, to its evolution in 1993 into Universal Corporation, a worldwide conglomerate with a number of products including tobacco. Based on scholarly research and over two hundred interviews with past and present Universal employees, this objective saga reveals much about American business and economic history.
Book Synopsis The Golden Leaf by : Charlotte Cosner
Download or read book The Golden Leaf written by Charlotte Cosner and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Choice Reviews Editors' Pick Through the rise and fall of empires, ideologies, and economies, tobacco grown on the tiny island of Cuba has remained an enduring symbol of pleasure and extravagance. Cultivated as one of the first reliable commodities for those inhabitants who remained after conquistadors moved on in search of a mythical wellspring of gold, tobacco quickly became crucial to the support of the swelling Spanish Empire in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Eventually, however, tobacco became one of the final stabilizing forces in the empire, and it ultimately proved more resilient than the best laid plans of kings and queens. Tobacco, and those whose livelihoods depended on it, shrugged off the Empire's collapse and pressed on into the twentieth century as an economic force any state or political power must reckon with. Cosner explores the history of this golden leaf through the personal narratives of farmers, bureaucrats, and laborers, all struggling to build an independent and lucrative economic engine. Through conquest, rebellion, colonial and imperial schemes, and the eventual Communist revolution, Cuban tobacco and cigars became a luxury item that commanded loyalty that defied mere borders or embargoes. Ultimately, The Golden Leaf is a story of two carefully cultivated products: Cuban tobacco, and its lofty reputation.

Download or read book Tobacco written by Iain Gately and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A rich, complex history . . . Deeply engaging and witty” (Los Angeles Times). Long before Columbus arrived in the New Word, tobacco was cultivated and enjoyed by the indigenous inhabitants of the Americas, who used it for medicinal, religious, and social purposes. But when Europeans began to colonize the American continents, it became something else entirely—a cultural touchstone of pleasure and success, and a coveted commodity that would transform the world economy forever. Iain Gately’s Tobacco tells the epic story of an unusual plant and its unique relationship with the history of humanity, from its obscure ancient beginnings, through its rise to global prominence, to its current embattled state today. In a lively narrative, Gately makes the case for the tobacco trade being the driving force behind the growth of the American colonies, the foundation of Dutch trading empire, the underpinning cause of the African slave trade, and the financial basis for victory in the American Revolution. Well-researched and wide-ranging, Tobacco is a vivid and provocative look at the surprising roles this plant has played in the culture of the world. “Ambitious . . . informative and perceptive . . . Gately is an amusing writer, which is a blessing.” —The Washington Post “Documents the resourcefulness with which human beings of every class, religion, race, and continent have pursued the lethal leaf.” —The New York Times Book Review
