Synopsis
In this extraordinary book the author has penned for the reader whose interests lead him into the curious by-paths of life a most energetic picture of Hasheesh, "the wining rival of opium as a producer of visions of paradise." Indeed, upon its first appearance in a limited ad privately printed edition, An Essay on Hasheesh evoked some notes of warning. "If there is any caution to go with this monograph, it should be to keep it out of the hands of the neurotics," said one reviewer. "We hope," wrote another, "that Victor Robinson's delightful description will not unduly popularize the use of this drug." The unstinted praise of critics throughout the English-speaking world established the fame of the Essay and created a persistent demand which is now being met by a new and unlimited edition. Dr. Robinson's foreword will assure you that this edition is a word-for-word reproduction of the earlier private issue.
