Harding is a comprehensive guide focused on the cultivation and collection of various medicinal plants, written in the early 20th century. The book primarily explores Ginseng, a plant with significant medicinal value that has been particularly prized in Chinese medicine, alongside numerous other roots, barks, and leaves with therapeutic properties. It serves as a resource for both growers and collectors, detailing cultivation techniques and the economic potential of these plants.  At the start of the publication, the author shares insights into the increasing interest in Ginseng and other medicinal plants, highlighting how many individuals inexperienced in agriculture entered the industry, often leading to their failure. The introduction sets the stage for discussing the value and demand for various medicinal roots, notably Ginseng and Golden Seal, and provides an overview of their historical significance and market dynamics. Additionally, it addresses the importance of understanding the natural habitat and conditions necessary for the successful cultivation of these plants. The opening chapters emphasize the profitability of cultivating these crops, particularly as wild populations dwindle, outlining practical advice for aspiring growers on selecting suitable land, preparing soil, and managing the plants effectively.
