Very interesting stories about the history and dangers of common and exotic plants. Nice illustrations. Includes intoxicating "drug" plants. Excellent referenced in back of book.
Cons: More an intellectual fact/trivia book than a book for gardeners. The pictures are for show and wouldn't help a lot in identifying plants for the layman.

For being a plant book, it has catchy subject matter.
Cons: Unfortunately, it is still a book about plants and I don't have a "green thumb" or anything.
