464 pages including notes, index, black and white photographic plates and illustrations. "In spite of recent well-publicized seizures of massive shipments of heroin from Southeast Asia, heroin continues to flood the country, spreading into every level of this society and shredding the fabric of everyday life. U.S. government estimates of the number of addicts has leaped from 315,000 in 1969 to over 560,000 in 1972. This book puts all the pieces of this ghastly puzzle together, and then maps the possible avenues out of the horror, suggesting that America may have to choose between our commitments in Southeast Asia and getting heroin out of our high schools." - from dust jacket.

19018Neither place nor date stated c. 1824. On two pieces of paper one roughly 9.5 x 17.5 cm and the other 2.5 x 13.5 cm laid down on a piece of grey card. Note on card in a nineteenth-century hand: 'Colonel John Macdonald's writing -'. In fair condition on aged paper on good strong card. The notes were apparently intended to accompany a plan the words 'An Elevation of' being scored through at the beginning of the heading as is a five-line passage beginning 'No 1'. Beneath this deleted passage is a nine-line expanded version of it beginning: 'No 1 proving insufficient as to strength and light Mr. Winstanley constructed this Building incorporating the former .'. The four-line passage on the smaller piece of paper concerns Smeaton's third lighthouse constructed 'on the principle of an Oak Tree' and said to have 'now stood firm during 126 years'. The dating is clearly mistaken with MacDonald probably calculating from 1698 the date of the completion of Winstanley's lighthouse. Neither place nor date stated [ c. 1824?]. unknown
