Pioneer of Inner space - The life of Fitz Hugh Ludlow, Hasheesh Eater

Donald P. Dulchinos

This is the never-before-told story of a true American original. Fitz Hugh Ludlow became the best-selling author of The Hasheesh Eater in the years before the Civil War. The book related his visionary experiences with large, oral doses of hashish, along with his religious, philosophical and medical reflections on the altered states they produced.
