Critical reception
Publishers Weekly said in their review, "for those who share an affinity with Preston's subject, this excellent book will be devoured like a tray of brownies". The Globe and Mail described it as a travelogue in which the author set out to "toke his way through 12 countries, sampling the local grass and hash" but "when he gets down to business, he writes an engaging and informative book" as the author sees and describes "meeting so many people ... who had been persecuted and jailed" because of "American drug-war fundamentalism that drives the statist cause" of prohibition. Kirkus Reviews likewise found it to be "a blend of advocacy and (so to speak) sober reportage" that exposed the "taxpayer-financed, cannabis-focused atrocity of the drug war". The Vancouver Sun called it "an excellent snapshot of global pot culture, laced with solid reporting and some genuinely nutty writing", and "a "surprisingly lucid" account of his journey, and pro-legalization polemic".
