In this volume, David Lee has corrected, revised, and added much new information to his Cocaine Consumers Handbook. Because of his efforts, the secrets of cocaine alchemy are now revealed for the first time in public print: how samples are tested for adulterants and impurities; how adulterants are removed; how street grit is transformed into pearl. Such detailed information is the sine qua non of cocaine connoisseurship, and is David Lees legacy to the world.
