This is a very informitive book that covers history, ceremonies,
users experiences, and much more. As a member of the Native American Church I recommed it to members and non-members alike.

The most complete authority on the peyote cactus, Lophophora williamsii. E. Anderson includes every aspects of peyote- history and religious uses to ethnobotanical, phytochemistry and pharmacology. For anyone interested in learning all aspects of this mystifying plant, Peyote: The Divine Cactus, will allow just that.

This book if very informative. It covers everything about the Peyote cactus. biology, propogation, history etc. A must have for anyone interested in this species of cacti.

The book arived in a timely matter and was in great condition.

This has to be the best book wrtten on the cultural background and use of this amazing little plant. Explains in depth the variations between cerimonies depending on the tribe. I only wish Anderson put as much effort into his studies of this plant so taht his information wouldn't be so lagging and incorrect when describing the species.
