And whether you live in a state that has chosen to legalize it or not, weed is rapidly losing its reputation as an illicit substance and becoming more or an accepted part of American culture with each passing election cycle. This fascinating look at 101 objects chronicles the history of weed, and uniquely shows how America’s perceptions of it have changed socially, medically, economically and legally. Each entry has been carefully selected to highlight a facet of weed’s history, from 12th century hashish to the Volcano Vaporizer.
