This YouTube video announces the pre-order of a new book from Headstamp Publishing titled "Tobacco of the Emperor." The book, authored by Patrick Phillips and photographed by James Rupley, focuses on Japanese cigarettes and related materials from the turn of the 20th century to the end of World War Two. It covers the general history of tobacco in Japan, its use in the military, details on Japanese cigarette brands and packaging, associated accessories like pipes and lighters, and foreign cigarettes consumed in Japan. The book is available for pre-order through a Kickstarter campaign for another project, "Clockwork Basilisk," and can be purchased as a standalone item or an add-on. A special "Japanese bundle" combining this book with "Swords of the Emperor" and exclusive extras is also offered.
