Green: A Field Guide to Marijuana explores today's very best cannabis strains in glorious full color. Presented in an eye-popping package and filled with hyperdetailed photography of individual buds, this essential guide to marijuana is smart, practical, and exceedingly beautiful.

The "Primer" section explores the culture of this complex flower and explains the botany that makes each strain unique. The "Buds" section describes the variations of lineage, flavor, and mental or physical high that define 170 exceptional strains.

Required reading for a new generation of curious and sophisticated pot smokers, medical marijuana proponents, and everyone in between, Green is easy to pick up and impossible to put down.

A MODERN WEED BIBLE: Cannabis policy reform is sweeping the U.S. and the move toward decriminalizing weed in many states has meant an exponential interest in exploring and understanding marijuana and its effects. In this approachable and intelligent guide, 170 strains of weed are organized both alphabetically and by type (Sativa, Indica, Hybrid), and paired with stunning photography, to create a resource unlike any other.

MARIJUANA IDENTIFICATION HANDBOOK: Whether using weed recreationally or studying its properties as holistic or herbal medicine, this guidebook opens the door to differentiating and understanding a multitude of types, their effects, and their potential benefits.

SOPHISTICATED MARIJUANA GIFTS: Seeking a gift for a pot smoker? They don't all have to be of the stoner joke variety. This classy cannabis book is appropriate for both the herb connoisseur and the occasional toker.

Perfect for:

Recreational marijuana enthusiasts
Medical marijuana users and advocates
Anyone exploring the idea of running a recreational cannabis business
Pair with marijuana accessories or a CBD product to create a thoughtful and practical gift

Industry Reviews

"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."
-Shepherd Express
"an impossibly beautiful lookbook"
-Willamette Week
"Author Dan Michaels and photography Erik Christiansen have broken down the hundreds of strains ..pairing each type with gorgeous, high-quality imagery"
-Mashable
"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."
-GQ Magazine
"Of the dozens of marijuana books that fill the shelves each year, Dan Michaels and Erik Christiansen's book Green has received the most critical acclaim. The large coffeetable book is part cannabis research (Michaels), part beautiful cannabis photography (Christiansen)... it goes into depth about everything from botany to flavor."
-The Daily Beast
"The Most Beautiful Book About Weed You've Ever Seen.. It's a comprehensive A-to-Z guide to marijuana strains. With weed porn photos by Erik Christiansen...the book avoids the hippie-stoner visual cliches long associated with weed in the popular imagination."
