Review
------
"This book not only explains the potential benefits hemp
for enriching our planet, but also how we can encourage lawmakers
to make hemp easier to access." —Ministry of Hemp
"An exceptionally well-written, organized, and presented study
that is unreservedly recommended for community, academic, and
governmental library collections." —Midwest Book Review
“Hemp has an amazing and positive story. Throughout history it
has been relied upon to clothe, feed, and shelter people all over
the world, and recently it has also been used medically to reduce
suffering from a wide variety of maladies. But beginning in 1937
with the passage of the Marijuana Tax Act, our own United States
Government wrongly began the process of vilifying it by linking
it to marijuana. Yes, the s are similar, but hemp has never
caused any harm whatsoever to anyone! But finally, hemp is now
making a comeback. And one of the guiding lights who is showing
the way is Jen Hobbs in her book American Hemp. The title says it
all. A fascinating manifesto on the economic, environmental, and
benefits of the hemp industry. Read this book, and you
will agree!”
—Judge James P. Gray, Superior Court of Orange County (Ret.)
“This ancient may be a bright light leading the way to
bring over 30,000 products to market and help farmers prosper
well into the future. Jen Hobbs’s book is a must read for all
true hemp believers!”
—Pam Ellison, founder of Minnesota Frozen Farm Forum
“This book is a must-read for the licensed and non-licensed hemp
cultivators and farmers looking for a crop with ultimate
sustainability. The important history of hemp and the many uses
of the sativa are examined. The research is already here,
the facts are in.”
—Paul Frank, CEO of Hemp Solutions of Minnesota
“Hemp has so much potential to help farmers, create jobs, spark
innovation and new technologies, and make existing products
better, stronger, and more sustainable. Thank you to Jen Hobbs
for using her writing talent to educate and emphasize the
importance of hemp for our country’s future.”
—Erica McBride Stark, executive director of the National Hemp
Association
“I ask questions for a living as a comedian and talk show host
and have often wondered why hemp is illegal to grow. Why aren’t
we growing this and using it for so many things? Why do we
grow way too much of one crop and make another illegal? What can
hemp do for you? Well, in this awesome book Jen Hobbs offers all
the answers we need to make this happen.”
—Pete Dominick, comedian and Sirius/XM radio host
"American Hemp is the most important book ever written on the
subject. Jen Hobbs has crafted a revealing expose on how the US
government and powerful corporations conspired to suppress a
natural substance that possesses substantial beneficial
characteristics for human beings and the environment. All
Americans need to read this important book." —Don Jeffries,
author of Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963
and Survival of the Richest
"I’m impressed with the time and energy Jen Hobbs put into this
deep dive on hemp in America. I hope the book meets with great
success in changing the public’s perception of cannabis." —David
L. Nathan, MD, DFAPA, Doctors for Cannabis Regulation, President,
Board of Directors
