A must read for any aspiring pipe smoker. I read this book in a day and after felt way more comfortable smoking my pipe with the knowledge that I knew what I was doing.
This book not only answers nearly all the questions pipe smokers might ask, but also is a practical guide to pipes and their accessories. With illustrations, charts, and glossary of terms, it becomes a useful reference work for the prospective, the novice, and the veteran pipe smoker.
It contains little-known facts about buying pipes and caring for them, the do's and don'ts of breaking in a new pipe, and the appraisal of various kinds of pipe accessories.
Historical lore on the role of the pipe in the ancient world provides enjoyment. The medical evidence analyzed in charts taken from the Surgeon General's Report is shown in relation to the health importance of pipe smoking.
