Отрывок из книги

Within this book are the sidewinding adventures of an industrial hemp advocate. Craig Lee grew up in rural Kentucky before joining the Army and serving in Vietnam. After settling back in Kentucky, as a middle-aged man, Craig discovered his calling in life: legalizing industrial hemp. Treat each chapter in this book as a stepping-stone, a building block, or a puzzle piece. The final result is an appreciation for Craig’s, and his coterie of friends, contributions to the American hemp industry

In gratitude for all the help I’ve received—throughout my industrious career—I feel obliged to return posterity the favor. And the only method I know how is through storytelling. I hope the challenges I’ve encountered will enlighten the reader on the re-birthing of an exciting new American industry. A green industry filled with good-hearted individuals that deserve a fair playing field to exercise their passions. A fairer playing field than the one I inherited when my long and strange hemp journey first began.

.....

Very rarely did I ever go at it alone. Friends and co-op members, like Joe Hickey, would accompany me. Not because they felt they had to, but because they were as eager as I for an adventure. Armed with enough hemp to satisfy a nation, Joe and I tore the horizon by its seams. One of our stops was an industrial paper manufacturer in Atlanta, Georgia. Coincidentally, Atlanta was home to CNN media headquarters which also housed the Turner Foundation. Joe and I agreed we should drop in and thank the foundation for their benevolence.

Unfortunately, we had heedlessly given away all our hemp. We decided to pay a visit, anyhow, overcoming our city-driving angst. We weren’t interested in sightseeing; the plan was to beeline to the foundation’s floor and find our contact: Peter Belmuth. Our plan to get in and get out instantly hit a speed bump. Once through CNN’s revolving doors, we soon discovered one may never find their way out again. After checking with the front desk, Joe and I were told we must navigate through CNN’s massive corporate headquarters to reach the foundation’s floor. This was not exactly the beeline we had in mind; nevertheless, we thrived off new challenges.
