63 pages~1 hr 15 min read15 chapters$4.99
A history of the cigar, American newspapers examined, and a thickening mystery share this Chambers's number. The weekly kept its serials rolling beside light essays and reportage for a general audience. A characteristic issue of Victorian miscellany. For the browser who likes tobacco lore and a good serialized puzzle in a single volume.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
