This is the first American book to consider the history and
development of the tobacco-smoking pipe as an art form and is an
illustrated guide for pipe collectors. Here the author has
assembled fact and fancy, history laced with humor, and a
chronological collection of pipes. The accompanying text explains
pipe styles, materials, and values. Besides present-day briars and
corn cobs, pipes can be found made of meerschaum, porcelain, ivory,
amber, silver, gold, semi-precious stones and rare woods. Craftsmen
have combined imagination, whim, and fantasy to create pipes of
fine artistic value.
