Weed Land
Friday, May 23 at 7 p.m., Northtown Books welcomes Peter Hecht, author of a new book from University of California Press, Weed Land: Inside America’s Marijuana Epicenter and How Pot Went Legit, for a book signing and talk. Moving from the passage of California’s Proposition 215, the nation’s first medical marijuana law, through law enforcement raids and the emergence of a lucrative cannabis industry, Weed Land reveals the changing political, legal, economic and social dynamics of pot. It offers an independent, meticulously reported account of the clashes and contradictions of a burgeoning California cannabis culture that stoked pot liberalization elsewhere, leading to marijuana legalization votes in Colorado and Washington. “With journalistic bravura, Sacramento Bee reporter Hecht captures California’s odyssey to legalize marijuana with immediacy, personality, and objectivity. Hecht’s cautionary and deftly written account is an animated examination of how too much, too soon, almost doomed a movement.” - Publisher’s Weekly
