Making Pure Corn Whiskey is a popular one.
The Complete Distiller is a more general guide to distilling in general and is what I would recommend. It is not focused on whiskey though, but there is a ton of stuff to learn before making good whiskey becomes a thing.
As was mentioned, the best, more current resources are online. The two best are Home Distiller and Artisan Distiller. As well as /r/firewater.
But for a hands on gift about the topic either of those books would work just fine. The first being specifically whiskey focused.
Stephen Pyles has a recipe in this book for Piña Diabo. It's fresh pineapple slices, a halved serrano & jalapeno, cinnamon stick, vanilla bean halved, and a lemon and a lime rind peeled in one long strip. The liquor used is mezcal, but he also does it with rum.
Thanks for bringing this infuser to our attention. I hope you have fun with it.
You want somethign like this (scroll down to see the pic)? http://homedistiller.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=25554
3)Make small spacers from 1/2" copper pipe (3/4" is long enough)
4)Get some wire that's easy to twist tie.
5)Take the Vacuum canister by itself and flip it over. Now place your coil on top and while holding the inside cut end of the pipe, SLOWLY (the coil I'm using is very malleable. Meaning it's soft and easy to kink.) pull the coil out and around the canister until the coil can drop around the canister. Now just the first couple loops need to be tight to start. Let the rest hang in loose loops. You'll pull those in as you work your way down.
6)Now about 10" in (to give yourself some space to move the end around for fittings.) place your first spacer and wire it to the top loop. Pull the first coil around holding it tight to the can, sort of smoothing the coil against it while pulling it. Go firm and slow, try not to pull it down but go along the can close to the coil above. Using another piece of wire, tie the spacer to the loop below. Do this again about a 1/3 way around. Keep doing this until your fingers are numb and bleeding and you'll have a solid coil.
I'm at work so here is a quick and dirty list.

Here is the one I bought:

The quality is pretty good. There is also a basket included and they have different sizes. If you are planning on doing all-grain or BIAB 5 gallons I recommend buying 44qt.
Do you mean 1/4 barrel? I'm making a Boka out of a 1/2 barrel keg (15.5 gal). Here's what I've bought:

I am going to start by forgoing the Liebig condenser as I don't think its terribly necessary and it can always be added easily just after the compression-fitted valve. The hardest part was finding 5' of copper pipe, everyplace wanted to sell me 10' and the prices were all over the place.
Hope this helps!
Well dunno if you're into whiskey, but I'm quite enjoying this book.
Totally true, didn't mean to imply that methanol was the only cause of hangovers. Proof is a fun pop-sci book that talks about hangovers and does a little anecdotal experiment with different hangover cures.
Do I need to crush before I press? I can borrow a press, not sure I can come up with a crusher though. I've seen people use a high powered drill and a mortar mixer, something like this, or just the bit like this. So maybe I just use the mortar mixer as my crusher, then use a press. What do you think?
Oh, these are the heating elements I was planning on using.

If I wired them individually, I can plug each into a regular outlet, right? Wiring them together, through the nicer PAC box, and then out to 240v?

Dont know how big of a container you are pouring into but check out a canning funnel. It fits the big and small mouth jars so you dont slop molten jelly all over.

This is what I got for brewing. It’s not going to cover distillation, but it’ll get you up to that point.
This one?

Google is throwing a few different books titled yeast for me =\
No, it's heavily regulated by the FDA as a food additive because it contains safrole (a precursor in MDMA production) but not because of the drug potential, rather, fears over it being carcinogenic. In reality the amounts you'd use for flavoring are so small it's not really much of a risk.
You can still buy sassafras root bark and extract it yourself.
