Now in it's 13th edition, the Perelman's Pocket Cyclopedia of Cigars provides complete details of handmade, machine-made and small cigars distributed in the United States. It's the most complete book... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book has everything an OCD-type individual could want. I keep a datatbase of cigars i've smoked as well as my reviews/ratings on them. This is a very helpful tool for that purpose. I enjoy it, beacuse it also gives depth on the blends and wrappers which isn't always readily available.
A very comprehensive list of Cigars

This is a book that has a quite complete list of different cigars around the world. Not very good for Brasilian or Cuban cigars - but has all different Vitolas and is a good tool to have back home. The introduction is quite shallow about cigars, almost useless, but the rest of the book is fantastic. It's not a book to read. But a reference book. I enjoyed buying it.

An unbiased listing of nearly every cigar brand, hand- or machine-made, available at the time of printing. Perelman's job hasn't gotten any easier over the last few years since the profusion of handmade cigars has now become a flood. However, he's very much up to the task - there is no other book that comes close to being as comprehensive. If you regularly smoke cigars, you should always have the most current copy of this book on your bookshelf.
