I want to set aside this place for recommendations on books that help us do all this stuff.
Other threads can have all the devotional literature, and there are metric tonnes of books that are great while smoking, but what are the classic books about smoking and tobacco that one "should" read?

The Ultimate Pipe Book by Richard Carleton Hacker Third Printing September 1985 would be a good start for anyone interested in some history and knowledge.
That would be one of probably many selections.

+1 on Hacker!
The Gentle Art Of Smoking by Alfred Dunhill is very informative also.
When I get home I will look through my books, I know that there are a couple others.
Unfortunately, some that I would like to get are out of print and command prices far past what I am willing to pay.
