"Confessions of a Pipeman" by Gary Schrier is now available! If the name seems familiar it's because he just recently wrote that most excellent book about the history of calabash pipes....

Order em' here:

Hey Doc, I pulled the trigger on this and received it yesterday. I also picked up "The Pipe Smoker's Tobacco Book" by Robert F. Winans.

Haven't gotten into "Confessions" yet, but finished the other and was very pleased with it. Very informative to any with an interest in the production/scientific side of tobacco. Book is only about 80 pages, but packs a lot of data into them.
