How Henry R. Luce and Clare Boothe Luce helped turn America on to LSD + Some Notes

The Time and Life Acid Trip: How Henry R. Luce and Clare Boothe Luce helped turn America on to LSD. (archived)

I accidentally came across this when I was looking into Henry Luce, some more. It doesn’t mention Luce’s ties to the CIA, i.e. Operation Mockingbird. The notes are from another project that I’ve been slowly working on. That one I won’t be publicizing until I’m finished with it.
