THE ANATOMY OF TOBACCO;
Reading edition
Or, Smoking Methodised, Divided, and Considered after a New Fashion. By Leolinus Siluriensis.
“A very clever and amusing parody of the metaphysical treatises once in fashion. Every smoker will be pleased with this volume.”—Notes and Queries.
“We have here a most excellent piece of fooling, evidently from a University pen.... Contains some very clever burlesques of classical modes of writing, and a delicious parody of scholastic logic.”—Literary World.
“A delightful mock essay on the exoteric philosophy of the pipe and the pipe bowl ... reminding one alternately of ‘Melancholy’ Burton and Herr Teufelsdröch, and implying vast reading and out-of-the-way culture on the part of the author.”—Bookseller.
Edition limited to 250 copies, each numbered, price 5s.
