Shaman Plant Tobacco - Volume 1: Culture and History of Tobacco in the New World

Medicine, smoke plant, stimulant, medicinal plant or – ornamental plant? Today, tobacco is the most widespread and used shamanic plant in the world. Christian Rätsch, a "non-smoker" and tobacco lover, has compiled extensive knowledge about the cult plant in this book.

It describes the traditional uses, particularly in Native American cultures, of the various little-known tobacco cards, their uses and their effects in conjunction with many other psychoactive plants, fungi and frogs. The black and white illustrated and clearly designed work is an enrichment not only for every shaman library because of this information.

Investigating the shamanic use of the legal drugs that are commonly habitually consumed around the world can offer us new perspectives for future meaningful and respectful use of them.

The readers of this book are both tobacco lovers and interested in shamanism.
