This is the book of the lamentations of the poet Macgonagall : portraying in his own unapproachable style his birth and parentage, early satruggles, miraculous and hairbreadth escapes, with a graphic and characteristic accountsetting forth how, by his inspired genius and indomitable pluck, he passed from penury through a knighthood into ab immortality of fame.
