Mythic Monday Book Tour: Mythic Plants By: Ellen Zach’s Thanks @workmanpub for the copy! Synopsis: “In Greek mythology, plants were used for tools, intoxication, warfare, food, medicine, magic, and rituals. When Prometheus stole fire from the Olympian gods and gave it to mankind, he hid it in a stalk of giant fennel. Ancient Greeks waiting to question the oracles were given cannabis as part of their cleansing rituals. A quince fruit started the Trojan war. The goddess Demeter was so distraught when Hades kidnapped her daughter that she caused winter to blanket the earth, killing all plants.  Mythic Plants focuses on how the ancient Greeks used plants in their lives and loves and conquests—some of which we can still use.” I am so intrigued to read this one. With everything popping back up in spring it seems like the perfect time!
