Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Pipesmoke Carry
Home-bound from the land of firs, I slip into the packsack an unbroken package of this wonder-working weed, which, set alight on winter evenings, pictures more truthfully than the camera the roads of summer. Tree and rock and falling water and winging fowl are caught and prisoned by the film of gela tine, but the Spirit of the Woodland, dancing on ahead and beckoning to a still fairer pros pect at the next turn of the road or bend of the stream, eludes the camera's eye. So, if you are a lover of the wild, come fill a pipe. The tobacco is strong and housewives vow it is unfragrant, but none other rings such pleasing pictures.
