Removing cigarette odor from clothing is really really really hard. Ordinary washing DOESN'T work! Some people say fill a bath with warm water and put vinegar in it - hang clothes above bath to absorb the steam and that gets rid of it.
Some say put baking soda on them and then vacuum them the next day (not sure how that works! ) and the last method I have heard of is putting bleach/vinegar in with your laundry.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
