The Book of the Thousand Nights and One Night ( Click the highlighted image to see an excerpt )

The third section includes 7 excerpts taken from rare and in some cases almost unavailable literature written during the Victorian era 1837-1901. These pieces of literature encompass the themes of hashish intoxication.

Due to recent media disinformation and as the debate on the social impact of cannabis escalates, it is of paramount importance that access to these narratives by impartial and early observers of this phenomenon is preserved and made readily available to the public domain once again. The cannabis in every case but one was taken and explored as an intoxicant. These writings represent the earliest printed cannabis experiences.
