A True Page Turner submitted by jibkidder on June 20, 2022, 10:01am This book doesn't offer a lot of answers, but it will drop a bomb of questions on you. So much strange stuff was going on during this time and the author just opens the story right up for you. A great complement to a similar book about the CIA's insane misadventures, "Acid Dreams: The Complete Social History of LSD: The CIA, the Sixties, and Beyond"
