|  | Cigarscapes: For the Refined Pleasures of Cigar-Lovers  For generations now, it has been possible to separate cigar-lovers into two major categories: those who prefer Havana's, and those who don't.

With wit and skill, author Phillipe Mesmer makes a forthright approach to the attractions of the Havana cigar. Plentiful illustrations include old and rare scenic cigar bands, some with images of the island of Cuba.
