This book is not an instructional manual nor a history of tobacco, but rather an anthology of the best poetry and prose from the last four centuries on the subtle pleasures of the pipe. Excerpts from works by William Cowper, J.M. Barrie, James Boswell and Thomas Carlyle, as well as many anonymous writers have been collected to provide the collective wit and wisdom of the 'Brotherhood of the Briar' in one volume. It will make an ideal fireside companion for any thoughtful and reflective pipe smoker.

Described by Alaska Airlines as a “hop, skip and a jump along Southeast Alaska’s coast”, their ‘Milk Run’ is a flight like no other. It provides a lifeline service to remote communities cut-off from the road network. Originally flown by bush pilots, it now sees three scheduled daily flights in each direction, between them serving nine communities from Seattle in the south, to Anchorage in the north. Running the Milk is the story of my journey on these flights.
