The book is a humorous and satirical look at the world of smoking, providing a year’s worth of witty observations and anecdotes about the joys and pitfalls of tobacco use. The book is divided into twelve chapters, one for each month of the year, and each chapter is filled with humorous stories, jokes, and illustrations that poke fun at the habits and foibles of smokers. The book covers a wide range of topics related to smoking, including the history of tobacco use, the different types of smokers, the etiquette of smoking, and the health risks associated with tobacco use. Throughout the book, Herford uses his trademark wit and humor to entertain readers while also providing a thoughtful commentary on the cultural significance of smoking in the early 20th century. The Smoker’s Yearbook is a classic work of humor and satire that will appeal to anyone with an interest in the history of smoking, as well as to fans of Herford’s unique style of writing and illustration.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
