Summary "Pipe and Pouch: The Smoker's Own Book of Poetry" by Joseph Knight is a collection of poetry compiled in the late 19th century. This anthology celebrates the art of smoking through various poetic expressions, exploring themes of companionship, leisure, and the pleasures derived from tobacco. The collection showcases a rich array of poems that reflect the cultural significance of smoking during this era. The opening of the anthology begins with a preface that outlines Knight's purpose in compiling this collection: to create a comprehensive resource for smokers and poetry lovers alike. He notes how smoking has inspired many writers throughout history, mentioning famous figures and their associations with tobacco. The section introduces several poems that evoke the sensory pleasures of smoking and the reflective moments it can inspire, highlighting a deep connection between the act of smoking and poetic creativity. Various poems capture feelings of nostalgia, camaraderie, and the joy of solitary contemplation, inviting readers into a world where the pipe or cigar serves as a catalyst for memory and introspection.
