REEFER MADNESS – A HISTORY OF MARIJUNA
$40.00
Amazon says “Reefer Madness, a classic in the annals of hemp literature, is the popular social history of marijuana use in America. Beginning with the hemp farming of George Washington, author Larry “Ratso” Sloman traces the fascinating story of our nation’s love-hate relationship with the resilient weed we know as marijuana. Herein we find antiheroes such as Allen Ginsberg, Robert Mitchum (the first Hollywood actor busted for pot), Louis Armstrong (who smoked pot every day), the Beatles, and more rapscallions standing up for, supporting, smoking, and politicizing the bounties of marijuana.” Introduction by the master himself, William S. Burroughs.
Playboy magazine loved it: “Reefer Madness expertly and entertainingly charts the course of the killer weed from Colonial hemp crops to the present proliferation of pot as the biggest underground industry since bootleg booze.”
“Everything you always wanted to know about the history of grass in America–but were too stoned to ask” said Gene Schoenfeld, M.D. aka known as “Dr. Hip”, the counter-culture’s favorite physician.
