Summary: this is a good book you should get it
Comment: i bought this book of a bum on the street in berkeley, ca. its awsome. its got great history and knowledge about the traditions of hash making and hash smoking around the world. its pretty neat. nice middle section of color pictures too ! very cool. the methods for making hash could be a little bit better explained and maybe some better pictures. but overall, its a winner.

Summary: Absolutely First Rate! You Won't Regret This Purchase!!
Comment: While certainly not infallible, this is as likely as close as any author will ever come to writing the "bible" of hashish. Dense with information and enlivened with wonderful photos and illustrations, Clarke's masterwork is both exceptionally entertainng and an invaluable reference work. I have to rate this as one of the best gifts I've ever received. First Rate!

Summary: Do not buy this book if you want to make hash!
Comment: You know this book is great if you want to learn about hash and where it comes from and how it is smuggled around the world. It is very scientific with lots of information on the ingredients of hash, different types of hash and it's effects on the body. You get nearly 400 pages on that. This is the best Hash book on the market but...... Clarke only shows us what the hash makers want the tourists to see and the book fails to explain how we can successfully make hash for ourselves using modern techniques.
Clarke gives us the "3rd world" look at how hash is made. In reality, yes these "traditional" methods do still go on and are nice to know about, but they have been replaced by newer methods at this stage in the game. So as a historical read this book is prime stuff, but in reality we need to look elsewhere for what really goes on.
Most people would buy this book because they would like to get their teeth into hash making using modern techniques. There is a chapter on this, but it is not modern nor is it useful. That chapter is called "Hi-Tech hashish making" but should really be called "80's Hi-Tech but low grade hash making." The chapter will only explain how to make inferior quality hash the hard way. More up-to-date methods are not even treated. This is totally surprising, as most of these new methods are simple! And a lot cheaper to do than what his sections explain. I mean in 400 pages and you get nothing really substantial about how you should go about making hash for yourself. All he would have to do is sit down and write 10 - 20 pages on the subject of home hash making and how it is REALLY done. Then the book would deserve 5 stars.
