Smoke Rings and Roundelays - Pipes and Tobacco Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a wonderful little (320 pages) collection of various poetry and writings concerning smoking tobacco, and mainly on pipe smoking, though there are sections devoted to cigars, cigarettes and snuff. What I found to be pleasant about this book is that due to the short length of most of the poems and stories, you can use a bookmark and read 20 or 30 minutes at a time, and then take care of other things and return at your leisure...hopefully with a nice briar full of Cavendish, and continue where you left off. I fully expect this will be a book I will keep in my library and return to again and again over the years.
