  Rick Newcombe has in 267 pages, collated his many writings on pipes and tobaccos, including previously printed articles from Reason, Pipes and Tobaccos, Pipe Friendly, The Pipe Collector and the late and much lamented The Pipe Smoker's Ephemeris. In this edition he has included much new unpublished material. Mr. Newcombe writes in a somewhat journalistic style. That is not surprising as he has he working life in the news industry but not as journalist. He deals with many of the different facets of pipe smoking and collecting, from European pipe shops to breaking in a pipe. This new Sixth printing includes sixteen pages of new color photographs by renowned photographer Robert Gardner, a new cover and some new writing. This is one of the few pipe books to have stayed continually in print since its first edition in 2004. We hope it will remain so for many more years to come.

"Confessions of a Pipeman" 9" x 6" Softcover

"This book is absolutely fascinating, and while Schrier predicts the end of pipe smoking, I'll bet anything that pipe smokers will be reading and savoring his words-and their pipes-hundreds of years from now."

-Rick Newcombe, Author, In Search of Pipe Dreams

"It is a bold move to even consider publishing a book on pipe smoking in an age when the pipeman seems to be competing with the spotted owl for its place on the endangered species list... Yet, that's precisely what Schrier does in this slim account... My hat is off to him for it... Refreshingly opinionated, decidedly non-PC, sometimes light-hearted, sometimes serious, but always delivered with an eye to the author's significant experience."

-Gregory L. Pease, G.L. Pease Intl.

"This book offers a refreshingly irreverent answer to the question: why the heck would you smoke a pipe?... It will challenge the thinking man who doesn't smoke a pipe to consider the commitment."

-Tad Gage, Author, The Complete Idiots Guide to Cigars

There is a serious dearth of pipe liertautre....So much pipe-writing is mundane and lacks flavor ...Schrier can write a properly constructed sentence with vigor! The irreverent tone gives this book a certain something special... I heartily recommend this book to all fans of the pipe.
