4.0 out of 5 stars
Great info on Ronald Stark,
By
This review is from: ACID: A New Secret History of LSD (Paperback)
I had read Acid Dreams: The Complete Social History of LSD: The CIA, the Sixties, and Beyond, which is where you should really start if you want a history of 60's counter-culture and government agency involvement ala MK-Ultra etc. Towards the end of that book however, Ronald Stark was mentioned and I really wanted to read more about him. This book has a great deal of info about Stark.
I was also interested in reading about "Operation Julie", and there is a chapter about that as well, although if you are interested in that, I suspect that Albion Dreaming: A Popular History of LSD in Britain might be the book to read. (I haven't gotten my hands on a copy yet.) So while this book is packed with great information, is a very enjoyable (and quick, at just over 200 pages) read, I would suggest Acid Dreams to someone who wants a "history" of LSD. After that of course, you will almost certainly want to read more about Stark, and then this is the book you will need. PS: I was wondering how it was possible this book didn't have any reviews; not even on the amazon.co.uk site. I see that the old edition has some reviews you can find here: http://www.amazon.com/Acid-Old-Editon-David-Black/dp/188331979X |
