Methland: The Death and Life of an American Small Town by Nick Reding
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is really a shocking and detailed look at the history, roots, and state of the "meth epidemic" and rural, small town America. The author met victims and actors in this grim drama and convincingly paints this scourge as the "American drug" as it gets its hold by offering energy and euphoria to underpaid works doubling up on shifts and doubling down on the bet that hard work will bring success, or at least security.
