"a handsomely produced coffee-table book...One hundred and seventy
strains of grass are described in terms familiar to oenophiles.
'Blue Kush is a tasty combination of blueberry and lavender
sweetness contrasted with subtle sour and spice undertones, '
Michaels writes. In the eye-catching photography of Erik
Christiansen, samples of those strains appear as curious
abstractions created by 'color correction techniques' that
presumably bring the buds to life in the cannabis equivalent of
Technicolor."

"Finally! A highly specific, rainbow-free encyclopedia of
marijuana! Written by Dan Michaels with photos from Erik
Christiansen, Green: A Field Guide to Marijuana is rigorous in it's
coverage of everything from bud biology to paraphernalia, with
entries on how to roll, smoking etiquette (don't hit and run,
brah!), and 75 words on whatever the hell QWISO is. Plus it's got
more than 150 high resolution pictures of the stinkiest, gnarliest,
hold-me-I'm-loosing-it strains of ganja you've ever laid eyes
upon."

(Christiansen)... it goes into depth about everything from botany
to flavor."

"The Most Beautiful Book About Weed You've Ever Seen.. It's a

imagination."
