Philadelphia Revelations guides you along the beaten and unbeaten paths around Philadelphia. Newcomers and natives alike will enjoy discovering the layers of history which in our daily lives we walk by without seeing. The twenty tours peel back the layers to highlight the most interesting strata at each point. Given the central role of the Delaware valley in the American Revolution, much of this book focuses on those events, so that anyone completing these tours will gain a much better understanding of the history of those times as it relates to the geography. Other stops gradually illustrate how Philadelphia got to where it is today, an ever-evolving city in constant interaction with the states that surround it. George Fisher is a retired physician and the author of the blog Philadelphia Reflections, with over 2,000 articles about Philadelphia from past to present. In this unique guide book, he brings to life the people and events behind the places you will see in his beloved city. He combines inquiry, insight and humor with over 70 years of observation to provide a singular perspective on the City of Brotherly Love.

George Fisher seeks the moral roots of America's antidrug regime and challenges claims that early antidrug laws arose from racial animus. Those moral roots trace to early Christian sexual strictures, which later influenced Puritan condemnations of drunkenness, and ultimately shaped the early American drug war. Early laws against opium dens, cocaine, and cannabis rarely rose from racial strife, but sprang from the traditional moral censure of intoxication and perceived threats to respectable white women and youth. The book closes with an examination of cannabis legalization, driven in part by the movement for racial justice.
