BILLING AND SONS, LTD., PRINTERS, GUILDFORD PREFACE Fifty years ago Tobacco in England was at its lowest ebb. Snufif was declining in favour, and the increasing practice of smoking was being opposed bitterly by ' Society. To drink tobacco ' was then far from being considered the gentlemanly accomplishment that it was in the reign of Elizabeth or the harmless hobby that it is now. Smoking was regarded as a low vulgar practice, to be indulged in by only artisans, Bohemians, and the scum of society. Only within the last twenty years has smoking regained the social position that it held in the golden age of Queen Bess and the stern times of the seventeenth century.
