Edinburgh, Scotland: The Porpoise Press, 1930. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Blue cloth, paper title label mounted on upper spine panel. Moderate binding lean, light surface wear to cover cloth with a slight nick along lower rear joint and minor rubbing/loss to spine extremities, spine a bit sunned with label somewhat tanned and showing just a sliver of loss along one side. 135 pp. Exceedingly scarce 1st edition (which consisted of only 1,600 copies) issued by Porpoise Press, an imprint founded by the author (George Malcolm Thomson) in 1922, and astonishingly not reprinted until 2006.

Book's corners a bit bumped Porpoise Press was founded by the author, MacDonald/Thomson, in 1922. Surprisingly, this distillation of whisky wit was not reprinted until 2006. The malt site Whiskipedia states "MacDonald's 'Whisky' is today regarded as perhaps the first modern book on whisky and certainly the first to treat the subject from the drinker's point of view." The author promotes single malt whisky over blends and defends the interests of consumers over producers. Thomson earned the nickname of Scotland's "best-hated man" while only 28 in the '30s. A crusading journalist, literary publisher, novelist and playwright, he espoused Scottish nationalism…
