"The Pecan and its Culture" by H. Harold Hume is a comprehensive scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the agricultural practices surrounding the cultivation of pecan trees and discusses their botanical characteristics, varieties, and cultural significance. It aims to provide insights into both the commercial and ornamental value of the pecan, highlighting its rising importance in horticulture. At the start of the text, Hume emphasizes the growing recognition of the pecan as a vital orchard nut, describing its nutritional benefits and potential for sales in the market. He introduces the reader to the importance of understanding the pecan's botany, cultivation requirements, and the challenges posed by its propagation. The initial chapters convey an exciting narrative of how the pecan has transitioned from a wild fruit to a key agricultural commodity, setting the stage for further exploration of its varieties and cultivation methods in subsequent chapters.
