King James I's A Counter Blast to Tobacco was written in 1604 and stands as one of the earliest anti-tobacco publications ever written. In the treatise, James blames Native Americans for introducing tobacco to Europe, warns readers of the danger tobacco poses to the lungs, and complains about passive smoking. Demonology, written by the king in 1597, takes aim at witches in early modern England.
