First American Edition of the first English translation by Baird Bryant. Octavo (7 1/4 x 4 1/4 in.). (6), 179, (7) pp. Original white wrapper printed in black. Issued by Olympia Press and simultaneously in the original French by J.J. Pauvert in 1954, a second translation by Austrin Wainhouse was published by Olympia Press in 1957 under the title, The Wisdonm of the Lash. A third and now standard English translation by Richard Seaver, under the pseudonym, Sabine D'Estry, was published by Grove Press. Baird's literary efforts ceased after this. He only other claim to infamy was that he was the cameraman for the Rolling Stones' documentary, Gimme Shelter (1970), directed by the Maysles brothers, which recorded the Stones' disastrous 1969 free concert at Altamont and the murder of Meredith Hunter by Hell's Angels security, which Bryant caught on film. Never opened (though due to the cheap paper used leaves have lightly toned), sharp edges, no creases, a Mint copy and thus exceedingly scarce. Cf. Kearney, The Paris Olympia Press 1.8.1.
