The Last Puff - Ex-Smokers Share the Secrets of Their Success (Paperback, Revised)

Ex-Smokers Share the Secrets of Their Success

"Refreshingly unlike the usual stop-smoking manual, this collection of over 30 interviews with people who kicked the habit follows their paths to hard-won triumph in brief oral histories and commentary. . . . The strength of the book is its refusal to simplify or glorify a gritty struggle. Realistic and persuasive." — Publishers Weekly

"A valuable little book with something for everyone. Everyone, that is, with an interest in quitting smoking." —Robert H. Williams, Washington Post

"In a fascinating and inspiring book, [the authors] give 30 former smokers a chance to share the secrets of their success. The stories can be a source of inspiration, hope, and helpful hits for smokers who have, like the storytellers, made repeated failed attempts to quit." —Jane Brody, New York Times

"If you've ever tried to quit smoking and failed, and you want to make your next puff your last one, read this book and you'll find out how to do it. These are the real life stories of a host of individuals who have made it." —Joseph A. Califano, Jr.
