Can anyone recommend a cigar history book that explores the intertwined families, countries and corporations? There has to be a lot fascinating stuff there. It seems that 3/4 of the people in the industry are related in some way. Lotsa' stories good and bad, I'm sure.

The Dec. issue of Cigar Aficionado mag. had an excellent set of Bios of the cigar familys (Cullman, Davidoff, Fuente, Llaneza, Newman, and Oliva). Also 30+ short Bios of a "who's who" in cigars. Interesting reading. One of the few times that the magazine was full of cigar related issues.
