Strong Drink and Tobacco Smoke: The Structure, Growth, and Uses of Malt, Hops, Yeast, and TobaccoThis work is a conglomerate of lectures on the title subjects delivered by the author, organized loosely into one short work. Containing over 160 original steel engravings and illustrations, the work shows the author's appreciation for the complexities of nature, finely exemplified by the composition of "plant structure, life and growth" while also demonstrating his love for the drink and smoke at a more minute level. |
