I don't have any. As a matter of fact, I don't have a library! I sold all my books to Half Price after I got the internet, kinda like why I don't wear a watch anymore since I got a cell phone. Redundancy will not be tolerated, unless it happens to be the number of pipes I should own that we are discussing! :lol: Anyway, no pipe books. :(

Does "My Lady Nicotine" count as a pipe book?

I have this finnish book name is transleted ''Little finnish pipe book'' it has history of pipe smoking in world and history of pipe smoking in finland, pipe shapes, tobacco strains, curing process and how to smoke a pipe.
One interesting fact about history of pipe smoking in Finland, was so called shepherd pipe, it was a large bowl set on ground, sometimes even carved on old tree stump and there was multiple stems so that more people could smoke from it, kinda like hookah, but way more hardcore.

I have this one. Good read. Interesting to get a very old school tradition perspective on everything.. and I mean everything.

Haha! I have about 1000 DVDs, dozens of books (but no pipe books yet). Curse you all...off to Amazon. Long live physical media!
