Product Description

Product Description

This concise guide to cannabis delves into pot culture and history, from Herodotus to the hippies and beyond. It also covers the essentials of using, cultivating, and cooking with weed; identifying pot varieties; and understanding legal and health issues. Handy and to the point, The Little Black Book of Marijuana gives you "the dope" on pot, from possible side effects and risks to medical uses and their efficacy. Learn about cannabis history and the issues around its legalization. Includes full-color photos of marijuana varieties.

"From cover to cover, The Little Black Book of Marijuana delivers exactly what it promises: An easy-to-read, well-researched informatively entertaining 'essential guide to the world of cannabis'....[I]f a cannabis fan was forced to choose one piece of weed-themed literature to bring with him or her to a deserted island (or even just on a long plane ride), it should probably be this one." --Seattle Weekly Blog

"Calling Steve Elliott an accomplished journalist in the fields of drug policy reform and medical cannabis would be a significant understatement....[A]s far as broad-spectrum introductions go you’d be hard-pressed to find better." --4Evergreen Group

I bought this sweet little book on Kindle as soon as it was published and am amazed at how Steve has managed to cram so much information into his allotted word count!

Covering the history of marijuana, legalization issues, cultivation, medical use, different ways of how to use, recipes, strains and marijuana culture, this book is compacted to perfection and this little edition is turning out to be my best friend while traveling on short journeys.

This type of short book on marijuana has been long overdue and I am very happy that Steve Elliott has put "pen to paper" in such a concise, easy to read and entertaining way - great photos too!

And lastly - the price? The publisher got this right, fershur - sensible pricing that most folks can afford. I hope that we will be seeing a price reduction across the whole Kindle range of eBooks to reflect the great value for money such as this Little Black Book of Marijuana obviously reflects.

Thank you, Steve, for this great Little Black Book of Marijuana.

Little in Size, Not Content 10 Nov 2011
By Shannie - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've been told that this little black book "covers the significance of the culture war of which marijuana has become emblematic; that's one thing that's a key to the intransigence of anti-marijuana forces, it feels like a surrender to the damn hippies." It did indeed and more.

There is a surprising amount of information in this short book, presented in a style that reads with ease. This would be a great introduction to cannabis and an enjoyable read for the informed reader as well. Multiple sources for more information are included.

Having enjoyed Steve Elliott's work on TokeOfTheTown.com for a few years, this was an exciting purchase to make and worth every little silver dime! I plan to make it repeatedly as I pass this gem on.
