198176492London: Nold Jonson books 1981. First edition. Octavo. 5 141 pp. Publisher’s black cloth with silver spine lettering in the dust jacket with an image of a marijuana plant on the front. An excellent copy of the first edition.“Mind-Sprung is not merely the best book about drugs since Confessions of an English Opium Eater and one of the best books ever written about settling in a foreign country it is also on of the most startling portrayals in recent years of what is happening in contemporary Britain. The collapse of British civilization as we know it seems to have measurably closer with the publication of this book.†from jacket flap. In the introduction we learn further that the author “was killed in a shoot-out with the Estonian People’s Militia during the course of an attack on an atomic power station near Lake Pskov†no such group and no such power plant. There is some evidence that Michael Lindsay was a pseudonym for English historian novelist and hoaxer A. D. Harvey. He originated a hoax claiming that Charles Dickens met Fyodor Dostoyevsky and has published under a variety of other pseudonyms including Stephanie Harvey Stephen Harvey Graham Headley Trevor McGovern John Schellenberger Leo Bellingham Ludovico Parra and Janis Blodnieks. There is an entire chapter devoted to hashish history. Nold Jonson books hardcover

192976071Mountain View CA: Pacific Press Publishing Association 1929. First edition. Small octavo. 91 1 pp. luridly illustrated from photographs. Publisher's bright pictorial wrappers. Very good and sharp copy."Paperback pamphlets such as The Moloch of Marijuana by Rev.Robert J. Devine 1943 and evangelist Earle Albert Rowell’s Battling The Wolves of Society:The Narcotics Evil 1929 and On the Trail of Marijuana: The Weed of Madness1939 fanned the flames of pot paranoia.

"The XIV International Conference of Applied Psychology took place in Copenhagen Aug. 13-19 1961. In addition to Leary Frank Barron of the Harvard psychology department and author Aldous Huxley were also invited to speak.Huxley's lecture was entitled "Visionary Experience"; it was delivered earlier than Leary's and concludes with a reference to Leary's upcoming lecture "We shall hear from Dr. Leary about the induction of such experiences by such substances as psilocybin". Barron's talk contains the first reference in print to his "commending the mushroom to the attention of Dr. Leary who immediately seized upon its possibilities as a vehicle for inducing change in behavior as a result of the altered state of consciousness which the drug produced" HOROWITZ WALLS & SMITH AA23D. Huxley who had written extensively about his psychedelic experiences under the influence of mescaline in Doors of Perception 1954 here writes about the pursuit of the visionary experience as a vehicle for change and a more beautiful reality. He elaborates on the various methods of access to the visionary world including spontaneous induced and chemical access with separate sections on the usage of mushrooms and how light can enhance the visionary experience. This and the first separate printing are substantially expanded from the two which precede them both produced by mimeograph and issued in small numbers. BROMER B113. Munksgaard unknown
