Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Readers who enjoy plants and offbeat tales will find Brown’s book a happy mix” (Publishers Weekly). Mankind has always had a morbid fascination with poisonous plants. Over the centuries, poisonous plants have been used to remove garden pests—as well as unwanted rivals and deceitful partners. They have also been used for their medicinal qualities, as rather dangerous cosmetics, and even to help seduce a lover when perceived as an aphrodisiac. Some of these and other uses originate in a medieval book that has not yet been translated into English. This book delves into the history of these plants, covering such topics as: How shamans and priests used these plants for their magical attributes, as a means to foretell the future or to commune with the gods How a pot of basil helped to conceal a savage murder The truth about the mysterious mandrake A conundrum written by Jane Austen to entertain her family—the answer to which is one of the plants in this book These stories and many more will enlighten you on these treacherous and peculiar plants, their defensive and deadly traits, the facts behind them, and the folklore that has grown around them.

A similar judgment for has recently been rendered by a New York court against the directors of a cemetery in a case of poisoning due to poison ivy which had been allowed to grow within the grounds.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Poisonous Plants and Weed Seeds of Canada and the Northern United States The illustrations are from photographs and drawings made especially for the book. By means of these and by the classification into the groups above referred to, it should be possible for an amateur to identify the plant responsible in an ordinary case of poisoning. No key based on botanical characters has been included, since such a key would be impracticable because of confusion with the numerous non-poisonous forms. At the end of the book, however, a symptoms key has been added. Such a key cannot, in the present state of our know ledge, be made precise. Its purpose is merely to facilitate diagnosis by suggesting the plants that should be looked for when certain symptoms are observed and plant poisoning is suspected.
