A Family History of Smoking is a compelling memoir about two European families living through the last gasps of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Set against the backdrop of the tumult of early twentieth-century Europe, A Family History of Smoking is full of eccentric characters, literary anecdotes and historical drama, and is a moving tribute to a family, its strength and its stories.
