Jeff Camardas THE SENSIBLE CIGAR CONNOISSEUR is an uproariously funny guidebook to every important aspect of the hobby, from knowing what makes for a good cigar, to how to find and buy them at wholesale prices. Unlike any other author in the genre, Camarda covers every important aspect, from secrets of storage, countries and colors, counterfeits, cigar toys, and all resources, from other books, to the internet and cigar radio! There's even a chapter written specifically for woman so don't peek! Perhaps as important as the quality of the information, the book is extremely funny and entertaining. He even includes a hilarious quiz at the end, which both fixes the knowledge and make the reader laugh uncontrollably. In fact, nearly every page makes you laugh out loud. If you have any interest in cigars, this book is for you. New smokers will find it an invaluable guide through the smoky territory of handmade, imported cigars. Veterans will find much useful here, and even more to laugh about. And all will learn from Lew Rothman's foreword on the future of the cigar industry. Mr. Rothman is president of J.R. Cigar, the worlds largest seller of premium cigars." . First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. Original pictorial wraps. 226pp..

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole.

Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
