Dry Drunk: The Culture of Tobacco in 17th- and 18th-Century Europe
"The New York Public Library possesses significant collections relating to the history of tobacco, containing materials that cross many different cultures and areas of research. Drawing upon these rich resources, [this exhibition] provides historical context for the uses and abuses of tobacco, showing, among other things, that it has been the focus of endless, if ever-shifting controversy since the moment of its introduction into Europe from the New World."
