VOLUME 1 – What’s Your Poison? The Garden of Hades.

My first book was based on plant poisons and their ability to give or take away life depending on the dose. It delivers a quirky observation on the toxic side of nature together with alluring colour illustrations of our familiar and unfamiliar toxic fauna, represented symbolically in the essence of women. I was fortunate enough to meet the late Dr. Andrew Sharratt then the (Curator of the Ashmoleon Museum in Oxford) to which we became friends. I painted his portrait and he introduced my book.

My other good friend is Iridologist and Herbalist Alan Payne who forwarded the books, so both books were scrutinised.
Although the first book has been published, I have had demand for a colour version so I want to combine the two together to create a quirky reference on the complete, ultimate book on poisons, chemical, biological and diseases that can overpower humanity in the future.

VOLUME 2 – Pishogue, Poisons & Pestilence.

The second follow-up to The Garden of Hades, elaborates on various afflictions and effects from poisons. The first section reviews infamous poisoners, dating from Ancient Rome to present day murderers who employed the constituents for arcane intentions, to induce the dark sleep such as (Cantonella) a deadly poison that became a significant tool for the employment of death. The second section covers some of the world’s most poisonous species in nature’s trees, plants and animals and how their toxins are exuded and administered for life, control and death.

The illustrated book elaborates on the significance of plant, animal, reptile and arachnid toxins in medicine and establishing that crucial cure which may be found within the natural world. The final section observes the most prolific diseases and viruses that have descended over the earth, delivering corruption, ignorance, greed and destruction upon man, by man, from pestilence and plagues to chemical warfare, with devastating effects.

There is a vast amount of information attached to this book so I have included the Contents and Chapters.
