Reviews

Hashim has written a useful overview of global hemp production from antiquity to the present, including the current public policy controversies in the United States. . . . Readers interested in hemp production as it relates to labor, manufacturing, and marketing worldwide, with an emphasis on the United States, will find this study a good place to begin.--Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains This book is a readable and important history of the uneven rise and fall of hemp farming and production in the United States. Hashim skillfully situates hemp in the larger political, economic, and labor worlds that determined its fate as both a viable crop for American farmers and a marketable resource in the world economy.--James C. Giesen, Mississippi State University
