Fascinating tales of hash smuggling and Asia!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The King of Nepal (Paperback)
Anyone who loves cannabis or who travelled the 'hippie trail' will love these memoirs from a big time hashish smuggler. Pietri lived it, and now he tells it. Well written, though it could have used a bit of editing. This book will take you back. It also supplies a more serious subtext in its depiction of the corruption of Nepal by the Royal Family, heroin money, and the DEA. Must reading for anyone interested in Nepal or cannabis. .....!
