Seller's Description:
Fine. Small square octavo, [11]pp. Initially published in Esquire Magazine, this is the first separately published edition. A fine copy in the publisher's plain sewn cardstock wraps with marbled over-wrappers. Of a total of 230 copies, this is number "v" of just 30 Roman numeral-ed hors commerce copies reserved by the author and publisher for their friends. An exploration and celebration of the south's great vice, in which, among other things, the author compares the spirit favorably (some might say defensively! ) to rye and scotch. Percy shares: "Bourbon does for me what the piece of cake did for Proust." Scarce in the trade, and important in any complete Walker Percy collection.
