This was a pleasant surprise. I read the entire book in one night. And I don't even smoke a pipe. Just a good, interesting read. I'm going to give this as a gift to my brother who actually makes "bowls" or um... pipes from various fruit tree burls. I think he'll enjoy it. Thanks for including this with my order, and thanks for filling my order. C.J.

This book is small, but I found it a thoroughly enjoyable and informative short read. It is well done, and unpretentious - doesn’t pretend to be anything it’s not, but surprisingly comprehensive. I spent a very pleasant hour or two with it, and will surely revisit it in time.

This is a small sized paper back book that was very informative to me since I am fairly new to pipe smoking. I occasionally refer back to the section on different tobacco types to help me choose what I want to smoke. Good book to share with others interested in becoming part of the pipe smoking community. I definitely recommend this to others.

Interesting enough and worth reading
Feb 24, 2018
I speak ONLY for myself, IMO, a good read, very informative, and would be worthwhile for anybody that enjoys reading and possibly learning something new.
So, if you're a pipe smoker, which I assume you are or you wouldn't be reading this review.
Get a copy, Pick up your favorite pipe and blend, Kick back and enjoy another little something that will only be found at P&C.
I found it worthwhile and I really don't care much for reading, but, occassionally I stumble across something that intrigues me to read it, and this did it.
Thanks Again P&C

Old or New pipe smokers need to read this !
Feb 14, 2018
New pipe smokers or old ones like me, will get real information to learn or refresh their memory. This is the best written,illustrated and informative book I have read. It’s not long, but you will be surprised how much is presented.
Truly a book you will keep and read many times, enjoying it more each time.
I would pay for the author to write his second book quickly.
