Reviews
"While the history, manufacture and use of clay, meerschaum and briar pipes have been thoroughly documented, the authors have now crafted a chronicle about porcelain tobacco pipes... For a pipe smoker, non smoker,. pipe collector or someone who appreciates antique and vintage porcelain objects, this is a fascinating read." - David Aldous-Cook, Antiques & Collectors Trader Sept 2015
