Woodstock, N.Y., Overlook, 1998. Soft Cover. [6], 329 p., 22.5 cm. An anecdote- and joke-filled discussion of cigars, with many cigar stories from movies and literature.

Synopsis
Full of irresistible anecdotes taken from history, literature, science, art, folklore and film, this classic cigar chronicle also details how cigars are made, the importance of the brand (and the band) , why a cigarette is not a cigar, the history of tobacco itself, and the manners and mores of cigar smoking - including how to cut and how to smoke.
