Jack Herer has compiled the authoritative history of the world's premier crop, hemp (Cannabis sativa). Hundreds of original documents and graphic displays outline the impact of hemp's prohibition as "Marijuana." Now in the seventh printing, this compendium outlines the myriad uses of hemp and shows how hemp can "save the world" from deforestation and petrochemicals. Cultivated since pre-history for food, oil, linen, canvas, paper, and cordage, hemp is potentially the earth's premier renewable resource and medicine. Valued for readability, the "Emperor" is a large textbook with an appendix of original materials from governmental press, and historical sources. First published in 1985, this is of proven interest to farm, legal, and health workers, activists and students of American and world culture. Marijuana--a safe medicine for cancer, glaucoma, asthma, stress, etc., and hemp's potential as the future's #1 source of: paper, textiles, food, fuel, and plastics is shown in contrast to the undocumented propaganda, racism, and hysteria of government/corporate prohibition.
