Richard Carleton Hacker is the world's foremost writer on the pleasures of tobacco.

He is the most honoured personality in the pipe fraternity, the media has christened him "the Czar of Cigars", and his books are listed as important reference works by the Encyclopaedia Americana.
But far more important, his books are very easy to read, filled with information and well illustrated. Vivid phrases flow through his writing - "the baptism of fire" relating to the lighting of a cigar, and on the end of a pipeful of tobacco "the glowing bits of tobacco will fade, the embers will die, the final curl of gray smoke will curl up and away, …".

Rick Hacker tells the stories behind the stories
in a witty and entertaining manner.
