Categories:

Reviewed by Erowid, 5/28/1998

This is one dense book. Information on the botany, ethnobotany, physiology, ethnology, history, and ritual use of peyote among various native tribes. Contains a large bibliography of books, papers and studies on peyote from the 1930s to the present. This is definitely not a quick read...but a very good resource/reference book.
