Summary
First published 15 years ago, Opium for the Masses instantly became a national phenomenon. Michael Pollan wrote a lengthy feature (Opium, made easy) about Jim Hogshire in Harper’s Magazine, amazed that the common plant, P. somniferum, or opium poppies, which grows wild in many states and is available at crafts and hobby stores and nurseries, could also be made into a drinkable tea that acts in a way similar to codeine or Vicodin.
With Opium for the Masses as their guide, Americans can learn how to supplement their own medicine chest with natural and legal pain medicine, all without costly and difficult trips to the doctor and pharmacy.
Opium for the Masses is deftly narrated by Richard Webb, a listener favorite.
Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.
