The book was first published in 1885 and is set in Texas, where Sweet lived and worked as a newspaper editor. The sketches in the book cover a wide range of topics, including politics, social customs, and local characters. Sweet's writing style is witty and irreverent, and his observations on life in Texas are both insightful and entertaining.
