The Little White Slaver.,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cigarette Wars: The Triumph of "The Little White Slaver" (Paperback)
This book I picked to read as part of a Capp political class. The book starts off with a few personal tales from the author that I thoroughly enjoyed. The rest of the book takes a chapter by chapter approach to different topics around the production, distribution and use cigarettes in America from different groups such as troops in World War I to how the anti-smoking lobbyist failed to capture the attention of mainstream American in the mid 1930's. I find it shocking I bought this book for $3 and some cent FROM amazon.com and now its like $40. Over all it is a good read for those interested in what is now one of the most villianized legal products in America.

Review of Cigarette Wars,
By alex1J (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cigarette Wars: The Triumph of "The Little White Slaver" (Hardcover)
I found this book to be quite useful and helpful while I was conducting research for a paper on the tobacco industry. It was insightful, and helped me further my understanding of the topic. However, the author does have a bias point of view, and anyone using this book for research should definetely counter it with content from the other side.
