It was only after serving as a chaplain in the American Revolution,
playing an important role in the Whiskey Rebellion, and serving
(often controversially) on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, that
Hugh Henry Brackenridge composed his great comic epic. Published in
installments over the twenty-eight-year period beginning with
Washington's presidency ending with that of Madison, this
irreverent and ribald novel, relating the misadventures of Captain
Farrago and his sidekick, Teague O'Regan, leaves no major ethnic,
racial, religious, or political issue of the period unscathed.
