Summary

Craig Thompson's graphic novel *Ginseng Roots* serves as an epic memoir regarding his intimate relationship with the ginseng plant, expanding from specific family cultivation to a detailed historical biography of the humble organism itself. The narrative explores how these roots are deeply entangled in the complex history of America since 1492, revealing unexpected intersections with international cultures including East Asia and the United States, as well as conflicts in war, world trade, and the struggle between Christianity and traditional values. Penny Century's *Trade Paperback Edition* offers a new perspective on the art of Jaime, featuring a repackaging of the classic works of both Jaime Hernandez and Beto to explore themes like embarrassment of riches and economic struggle. Together, these volumes provide a rich tapestry of historical and biographical storytelling that highlights the multifaceted nature of these subjects.
