The Plant Messiah: Adventures in Search of the World’s Rarest Species by Carlos Magdalena

4.0

Part biography, part natural history text, part detective novel, all fun. Magdalena is lucky to be living such an incredible life doing great work in service of plants and people. He loses a star for his writing being competent but not thrilling, but this book is worth a read anyway if you're interested in conservation, plants, and survivors on the edges of the world.
