Title page is repaired by type else a good copy. Quoting ADB " about thirty pages of satirical, scandalous and at times very witty doggerel attacking several prominent citizens. (The explorer Thomas Livingstone ) Mitchell was widely suspected of being the author and was urged by Sir Charles Nicholson and others to make a formal denial. He did so and may be believed, for he was one of those attacked and never otherwise displayed such a capacity for devastating self-criticism. There is a plausible family tradition that his eldest son, Livingstone, was responsible." A very early Sydney poetry book as well as a good satire on Sydney establishment figures of the day
