I admired his thoroughness, and above all his concern for his troops--something that came through again and again in planning for Desert Storm and during our humanitarian operations in Somalia."

Condition: Very Good
Description: New York: Farrar, Straus and Company, 1964. First Edition. Very Good/Good+. First edition, first printing.

Harry Anslinger is the man who invented the "War on Drugs," a core element of American domestic policy for almost a century. He ran the Federal Bureau of Narcotics from its inception in 1930 to his retirement in 1962, through five presidential administrations. Some have compared his influence to that of his rival FBI director J. Edgar Hoover, although Anslinger was much less well known. Anslinger actively pursued cases of mafia-related drug-trafficking, whereas Hoover was insistent that no such thing as the mafia existed. Anslinger efforts against marijuana, which he at one point declared the most dangerous drug in the world, led to the drug's ban in 1937. He associated both marijuana and heroin with jazz music, which he despised, and relentlessly pursued the singer Billie Holiday. Throughout his career, he insisted that “strong laws, good enforcement, stiff sentences and a proper hospitalization program” were the solution to the problem of narcotics abuse. His legacy endures today.
