Book Pass - The Complete Idiot's Guide to Cigars

I saw someone recommend this book in another thread and figured "hey, I'm an idiot" and "I really like cigars" and ordered it. A solid read. I'm not a complete newb (just 95% newb) so some of the info was a little basic but I sure got a lot out of it, especially around the cigar-making process and the "make your own ratings system" chapter. Very thorough (but easy to understand) details. Now that I'm done with it, it's time to send it on to a better place.

Requirements of pass - If you want to read this book, reply to this thread. I'll take names in order they were received and will make the "official" list. I'll PM the first person for address, and send the book out in the next 24 hours to the next person on the list. When you get it, read it (should EASILY take less than a couple weeks, depending on how much you skim). Then, when finished, PM the next gorilla on the list for address and send book out to him/her. Please add delivery confirmation# in this thread to "officially" close out your responsibilities. I'll try to monitor this thread to move any slow pokes along.

Mods - this is my first attempt at running a pass, so move/kill if I'm out of line in any way.

If anyone else has a copy of this they're done with, we could start two or more going at a time. No sense to leave it sitting on a shelf to gather dust, eh?

Happy reading!

I'd love to read the book, and will happily pass it along when I'm done.

I have this book also, somewhere. I will look for it in the morning (several hours later than my current 2AM), and if I can find it, I will be happy to send it to you so you can split the pass in half, or send it to the first person on a list that you split. I no longer need it, and this will cut the wait time down to those at the bottom of any list. I will PM you when I put my hands on the book, and you can let me know where you want it sent.
