First line
In the early 1970s, a time of few heroes, one man loomed large over the Harvard campus: Richard Evans Schultes, a kindly professor who shot blowguns in class and at one time kept outside his office door a bucket of peyote buttons, available to his students as an optional laboratory experiment.
