The book investigates cocaine from the chewing of the coca leaf to the large scale trafficking of cocaine into the United States.[1][2] Streatfeild goes into lucid detail about the history that the coca leaf had with the Native Americans and their Spanish overlords.[3] He also investigates the life and impact of the world's most famous cocaine addict, Sigmund Freud. Written with sobering statistics and personal humor, Streatfeild travels to a number of locations, including to New York, indigenous areas of South America, and ultimately to Colombia to meet with the Ochoa family.
