Reviews
"The book is an excellent examination of the social, economic, and political process by which cigarette smoking became so much a part of the Army's culture for some 50 years and then how this same social, economic, and political process was used to virtually end cigarette smoking by soldiers. This is a well-researched and well-written book that examines a social norm that shaped the Army for a great part of the 20th century. If you are interested in the social history of the Army, this book is well worth reading." -- The Journal of America's Military Past, The book is an excellent examination of the social, economic, and political process by which cigarette smoking became so much a part of the Armys culture for some 50 years and then how this same social, economic, and political process was used to virtually end cigarette smoking by soldiers. This is a well-researched and well-written book that examines a social norm that shaped the Army for a great part of the 20th century. If you are interested in the social history of the Army, this book is well worth reading.The Journal of America's Military Past, From Major General Payton Marchs introduction of the ration in 1918 (countermanding an order from Secretary of War Newton Baker), to our beloved image of the smoking GI, along to the end of cigarette rations in 1973, the introduction of the Armys Tobacco Cessation Program in 1986, and the final end of military cigarette subsidies in 2001, this book is an interesting new angle on the American Century.Manhattan Book Review, This path-breaking book depicts an overlooked dimension of the military-industrial-political complex: not the armaments industry but tobacco. With two world wars as turning points, Joel Bius integrates war, political economy, public health and the environment in innovative and fascinating ways, tracing an American addiction that was ultimately brought under control. -- Richard Tucker, Adjunct Professor, School of Environment and Sustainability, University of Michigan, and author of The Military and the Environment: A Reference Handbook, " Smoke 'Em if You Got 'Em is a fascinating story about the rise and fall of a masculine rite of passage." -- The Daily News, "Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em unpacks one of war's most popular images - that of the cigarette-smoking G.I. Dr. Bius' work makes clear the complex interplay between the U.S. military and the society it served in the rise and fall in the acceptability and popularity of military smoking. Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em is War and Society history at its best." -- Andrew Wiest, author of The Boys of '67 and University Distinguished Professor, University of Southern Mississippi, "Bius offers a detailed, well written, and illuminating discussion of the Army's expanding role in the lives of soldiers from 1914 to 1986, especially with the move to an all-volunteer force, which found the Army attending to the needs of long-term enlistees and their families.... Tobacco use in the military is frequently regarded as inevitable and natural. Joel Bius has taken an important step in clarifying the forces that forged and sustained this relationship in the twentieth century." -- Michigan War Studies Review, "Bius should be commended for producing this well-written and -researched work of political and cultural history. Additional credit is due to Matt Simmons for an exceptionally striking and clever cover design." --Naval War College Review, Smoke Em If You Got Em unpacks one of wars most popular images that of the cigarette-smoking G.I.

Joel Bius has taken an important step in clarifying the forces that forged and sustained this relationship in the twentieth century.Michigan War Studies Review, "A fascinating study of the rise and fall of the cigarette in American society and its influence on the nation's political economy during much the 20th century. Joel Bius clearly establishes the role of the U.S. Army in helping to create a nation of cigarette smokers during the two world wars, as well as its later role near the end of the Cold War in bringing to an end big tobacco's reign over the GI." Peter R. Mansoor, author of The GI Offensive in Europe; General Raymond E. Mason Jr. Chair of Military History, Ohio State University, "A fascinating study of the rise and fall of the cigarette in American society and its influence on the nation's political economy during much the 20th century.

Richard Tucker, Adjunct Professor, School of Environment and Sustainability, University of Michigan, and author of The Military and the Environment: A Reference Handbook, Smoke Em If You Got Em will appeal to readers interested in both Army history and the cultural influence of the American tobacco industry. Biuss insights and research are top-notch. While it is an academic study, it will hold the attention of a novice historian. This is a quality, engaging read packed with information on the tobacco industry and the U.S. army throughout the twentieth century.On Point: The Journal of Army History, "From Major General Payton March's introduction of the ration in 1918 (countermanding an order from Secretary of War Newton Baker), to our beloved image of the smoking GI, along to the end of cigarette rations in 1973, the introduction of the Army's Tobacco Cessation Program in 1986, and the final end of military cigarette subsidies in 2001, this book is an interesting new angle on the American Century." -- Manhattan Book Review
