Advanced praise for It’s NORML to Smoke Pot:

A terrific review of the marijuana legalization movement over the last 40 years in America, from the person who has been at the center of it all, NORML Founder Keith Stroup. – Willie Nelson

As America is nearing ever closer to ending the prohibition on marijuana, the story of that fight is the story of NORML. And the story of NORML is the story of its founder, Keith Stroup. Keith is a lawyer who has dedicated his career to defending an ideal: that the mature adult use of marijuana is a civil liberty. If you believe in the principle of civil liberties, then Keith Stroup is a true American hero. Read this book and you’ll see why. – Rick Steves, travel writer, public television producer and host.
