Sobre este artículo

London: Chatto and Windus, 1950.. 6th impression. During the Second World War, the cargo vessel S.S. Cabinet Minister is wrecked off a remote fictional Scottish island group � Great Todday and Little Todday � with fifty thousand cases of whisky aboard. Due to wartime rationing, the thirsty islanders had nearly run out of the "water of life" and see this as an unexpected godsend. They manage to salvage several hundred cases before the ship sinks. But it is not all clear sailing. They must thwart the efforts of the authorities to confiscate the liquor, particularly in the shape of misguided, pompous English Home Guard Captain Paul Waggett. A cat-and-mouse battle of wits ensues. Based on a real-life incident that occurred in 1941 on the Hebridean island of Eriskay, when the SS Politician ran aground with a cargo including 28,000 cases of malt whisky. Pp.264. Red cloth, slight sunning to spine. G+.
