I will have to check it out sometime.

I need to re-read it.  But the only copy I own is paperback and it's pretty long resulting in small print.  So I need to see if my Library has it in full size hardback.

Pervitin, which is indeed meth, was prescribed some 35 million times during invasion of France, and this was a strategic decision.
