What New World explorer was the first introduced to tobacco?
ChuckSiata
A widespread and often-repeated story has it that it was Sir Walter Raleigh. But it wasn't. It was unknown Spanish sailors who were the first to try tobacco and who brought the habit back to Europe. But Sir Walter was an avid smoker and a popular public figure, so he certainly made smoking widely known and fashionable in England.
