5.0 out of 5 stars
As usual, Cigar Aficionado does it again.
Maintaining the very high standards set by Cigar Aficionado (CA) is not always easy. However, this book follows that fine tradition. While certainly not intended to be a cigar mavens "bible," it does an exellent job of reviewing several different categories of cigar art.

This review is from: Art of Cigars (Hardcover)
Maintaining the very high standards set by Cigar Aficionado (CA) is not always easy. However, this book follows that fine tradition. While certainly not intended to be a cigar mavens "bible," it does an exellent job of reviewing several different categories of cigar art. From cigar lighters to ashtrays and humidors, to name only a few, Art of Cigars makes a great coffee table book. As with all other CA works, this book is packed with fantastic photography. A perfect complement to its predecessor, World of Cigars, also a CA publication, the serious cigar smoker should not be without it.

Sorry, but I have assigned a two-star de-merit for Mr. Shanken's editorial sloppiness!
