"Hawkes traces the story of ``the heroin trail from the field to the grave'' in a hard-hitting account accompanied by many large, captioned color photographs. This oversized book graphically depicts the ruination caused by heroin addiction. From the poppy fields of Southeast Asia and the Golden Crescent including Afghanistan and Pakistan, through the production process to the smuggling to large urban areas, culminating in street sales, the story unfolds. The 4000 b.c. to 1986 chronology capsulizes the history of the opiate, and statistics for Britain, Europe, and the U.S. provide helpful comparisons. This large print book with simple text in short-chapter format will serve as a useful overview of the heroin story. The riveting photographs, however, make the most cogent statement."

Ex-library 32 page hard-cover shows some wear but still complete and in good reading condition.
