 A Brief Biography of Fitz Hugh Ludlow
Fitz Hugh's mother may have brought out in him an obsession with the problem of mortality and the connection between the spiritual and animal in man. It was observed that "through all her life [she] had a constitutional and indescribable dread of death; not so much the fear of being dead, as of dying itself.
Ludlow's account was probably flavored by the account of opium addiction which formed the model for his book: Thomas DeQuincey 's Confessions of an English Opium-Eater.
Ludlow was among his supporters, considering Bierstadt 's landscapes representative of the best trends in American art of the era, and using his position as art critic at the New York Evening Post to praise the Bierstadt aesthetic.

 Editor's Introduction to the 1995 Hypertext Edition of Fitz Hugh Ludlow's The Hasheesh Eater
When Ludlow started his interest in intoxicating drugs, the recreational and medicinal use of such drugs as ether, laudanum (opium), and nitrous oxide was already a social phenomenon in Europe and America, and alcohol, of course, had long been part of the culture.
On the one hand, there were the prohibitionists, who pointed out Ludlow's addiction to "hasheesh" and his horrifying hallucinations; on the other, those who believed that cannabis deserved a second chance and saw Ludlow as a literate chronicler of the mystical heights which could be reached using the drug.
Ludlow's last years were spent among opiate addicts, trying to find a cure or at least lessen the suffering of withdrawal.

 El comedor de hachís (Fritz Hug Ludlow)
Esta era la práctica común entre los miembros del club de los hashichiens, artistas e intelectuales del París del siglo XIX -entre los cuales se encontraba Baudelaire-, que solían saciar su esnobismo y curiosidad orientalizante con el deleite del damwask, o sea, una mezcla de mantequilla, café y hachís.
Y este fue también el caso de Fritz Hugh Ludlow, un prolífico escritor norteamericano que a mediados del siglo XIX publicó el presente libro, El comedor de hachís, que en cierta manera fue inspirado por el ya clásico libro de Thomas de Quincey, Confesioens de un inglés comedor de opio.
A partir de su curiosidad por saber de todo lo que iba llegando a la botica de un farmacéutico amigo suyo, Ludlow se decidió por ingerir 30 gramos de un preparado a base de extracto de la cannabis, sin saber muy bien lo que esperar de la experiencia.
