<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The story of cigars. </b> <p/>The most futile and disastrous day seems well spent when it is reviewed through the blue, fragrant smoke of a Cigar. <i>Evelyn Waugh</i> <p/>Exploring not just the extraordinary story of tobacco and cigars but also a history that has been instrumental in the foundations of societies and cultures, <i>Cigars</i> will take you on an astonishing journey through landscapes, scents and an incredible roll call of the great, the good and the not-so good. The cigar has provided solace and a chance for worldly contemplation to generations of thinkers, businessmen, writers, entrepreneurs and connoisseurs. <p/>In this elegiac offering to the pinnacles of hand-rolled tobacco, world-renowned expert Nicholas Foulkes guides you through the myths, legends, nuances and delicious realities of the smoke-savouring universe, serving as an introduction for the neophyte and a reference for the connoisseur. <p/>A cigar ought not to be smoked solely with the mouth, but with the hand, the eyes, and with the spirit. <i>Zino Davidoff</i><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Nicholas Foulkes is the author of over 20 books.
