I just starting reading this recently and I must say, a very interesting read from the start. If you do not have, I highly recommend. I was not aware that the Author is also the owner of California Carnivores. I honestly wish I was as fortunate/smart as he was as a young lad to get in to such an amazing hobby. It seems to cover pretty much all aspects of CP's and is intriguing, to say the least. My only complaint would be that it is not available in digital format.

For those that are not aware, you can get a Kindle reader app for not only your tablet but also your cell phone and computer.
I signed up for the free 30 day trial of Kindleunlimited. There are a couple of interesting books pertaining to CP's and also Cobra lily's that are free and are pretty good reads so far.

Any how, I am in search of books related to CP's that can be downloaded in the Kindle format for later reading. If I was not already half way through "The Savage Garden" I would order that for Kindle also. If there are any out there that are not on Amazon I would love to take a look at them.

I wish they had digital versions of these. It is much easier for me to read a book on a 42 inch screen :D :D

This one is quite awesome for it being a free download. It goes in to great detail on how to grow most all species of CP's. Very informative reading.
