    PREPARE TO BE BEAKED BY THE MAJESTIC EAGLE OF HISTORY 
     
      
     
    Most of us are familiar with the greatest hits and legendary heroes of US history. In George Washington Is Cash Money, Cory O'Brien, author of Zeus Grants Stupid Wishes, does away with the pomp and circumstance and calls America's history what it is: one long, violent soap opera. In his signature clever, crude, and cuss-ridden style, O'Brien reminds us that: 
     
      
      
    ● Teddy Roosevelt stopped bullets with his manly chest 
     
     
     
    ● Harriet Tubman avoided danger by having prophetic seizures. 
     
     
     
    ● Joseph Smith invented Mormonism by staring into a hat full of rocks. 
     
     
     
    ● Billy the Kid was finally defeated by the smell of fresh bacon. 
     
     
      
    And there's plenty more Star Spangled stupidity where that came from.

    Wild American Ginseng - Lessons...

    Wild American ginseng, America's most famous medicinal plant, is in trouble. In plain prose, James McGraw explains why as he translates the latest in ecological and conservation science findings on this unassuming understory herb. As the world's foremost authority on wild ginseng, McGraw is uniquely poised to present this story based on more than twenty years of uninterrupted field research. 
     
     
     
    McGraw traces the dramatic ecological history of ginseng in North America, documenting the ginseng-centric view of a world increasingly dominated by both direct and indirect actions of humans. Far more than a story of a single plant species, ginseng becomes a parable, a canary in a coal mine, for what is happening to our dwindling wild species across the globe. Documenting lingchi (death by a thousand cuts) in human interactions with wild species, McGraw shows us the evidence of our slowly eroding biodiversity and our diminishing global biotreasury. 
     
     
     
    Beyond merely documenting our destruction of nature, McGraw also offers a pathway to an optimistic future for ginseng and the wild species with whom we share the planet. He illuminates how a dramatic expansion of our commitment to sharing the planet with our fellow planetary companions is the key to preservation; and now is the time to do so.
