Description
The "Mad" magazine of its day, the satirical journal "Salmagundi" was launched in 1807 by Washington Irving, his brother William, and their friend James Kirke Paulding. Featuring pseudonyms like Will Wizard and Pindar Cockloft, their nonsensical (and occasionally bawdy) comedy is collected in this volume, which popularized New York City's nickname "Gotham."
