Peruvian Bark: A Popular Account of the Introduction of Chinchona Cultivation Into British India - Gyan Books
About The Book: Peruvian Bark: A Popular Account of the Introduction of Chinchona Cultivation Into British India" by C.R. Markham recounts the story of how quinine-producing Chinchona trees, native to South America, were introduced into British India during the 19th century. The book highlights the efforts of British botanists and explorers who, amid political and logistical challenges, successfully transported seeds and plants from the Andes. Their mission aimed to combat malaria in colonial India by cultivating a reliable local supply of quinine. Markham’s account blends scientific ambition with imperial interests, reflecting colonial motivations behind botanical exploration and public health initiatives.
