Hemp: a Wonder of Nature
Very interesting and well-written book, in English and French. I enjoyed learning about the history of hemp in Canada and the USA and its importance in international relations and wars. I also appreciate how it informs the reader and does not inflate hemp with hyperbole, but stays with the facts. This book is helpful to the general public, providing much-needed information to the world. “.
Summary: This bilingual book deals with a hot topic in Canada and North America: cannabis. But it focuses more specifically on the plant’s non-psychotropic varieties, commonly known as “industrial hemp”. In an effort to summarize and popularize the subject, the author presents an overview of this plant, which has been used by man since he invented agriculture. Is there a difference between cannabis and hemp? This discussion is the subject of the first pages of the book. We then delve into the plant’s rich history from a North American perspective, followed by botanical and agronomic aspects and, finally, the main uses of this multi-faceted plant. This book will inform and entertain you. Sometimes controversial and certainly underestimated, hemp deserves to be better known. It’s time to restore its former glory.
We have chosen to publish this book on ebook and using a print-on-demand system, making it available to readers worldwide. This approach also offers significant environmental benefits, as each copy is printed only when ordered, reducing paper waste and eliminating the need for excess inventory.

Hemp is an economical, sustainable and environmentally friendly crop. Its exceptionally strong fibres make it highly durable, while its ability to grow with little need for pesticides or herbicides and absorb carbon dioxide offers significant ecological benefits. Well suited to temperate climates such as Quebec's, hemp can be produced locally. Unlike psychoactive cannabis varieties, industrial hemp is cultivated primarily for its practical uses and contains only trace amounts of THC.
