Summary "A Treatise on the Culture of the Tobacco Plant" by Jonathan Carver, Esq. is a scientific publication written in the late 18th century. The book focuses on the cultivation and curing of the tobacco plant, specifically adapted for northern climates. It serves as a practical guide for landholders in Great Britain looking to raise tobacco, a valuable cash crop that was increasingly recognized for its economic benefits during this period. In this comprehensive treatise, Carver provides detailed instructions on the entire process of cultivating tobacco, from selecting the right soil to transplanting seedlings and curing the harvested leaves. The book discusses various aspects of tobacco cultivation, including the best growing conditions, care against pests such as the tobacco worm, and the methods of curing that enhance the flavor and quality of the tobacco. Carver also emphasizes the specific challenges and adaptations needed for success in a northern climate, while taking into account the historical context of tobacco cultivation in America. He argues for the feasibility of growing tobacco in Great Britain as a remedy to the supply issues stemming from the American colonies during a time of political unrest.
