From Booklist:
A politically incorrect subject in these smokeless times, cigars nonetheless receive the royal treatment from journalist Bati. His inside look at this segment of the tobacco industry encompasses history, manufacture, brand names, purchase, and storage. More specifically, aided by old and recent photographs (including a visit to the Cuban state tobacco monopoly), Bati investigates all aspects of the trade and reveals some surprising facts--e.g., cigars were originally sold in bundles covered with pigs' bladders, and Spain imports more cigars than any other European country. The middle (and largest) section is a directory; over 65 companies, from Arturo Fuente to Zino, are featured, each with brand names, labels, and ratings for flavor and quality. Excellent research notes for the curious. Barbara Jacobs
