36 unnumbered pages : illustrations. Imprint on title page: Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin, Pinprick [House] US(&)A. Half-title page: Book one :: The reflections. "The paper is hand-made Shadwell handmade in the Hamady's barn. The edition is 225 copies."- publisher's advertisement. The book is presented as an alphabet book that details the history of Perry Township, Wisconsin, from the "earliest Creation of Life". 63 x 83 mm. It is well-known among collectors for its entry under the letter "X" for Xenophobia. In this section, Hamady draws a controversial parallel, stating that Hitler learned techniques for the destruction of races from the Federal Government’s Indian policies. The subtitle identifies it as an "eye witness account of the first Druze settler to show up in driftless Wisconsin," reflecting Hamady’s own heritage and his tendency to blend autobiography with fanciful fiction. This work is often cited as a prime example of Hamady's "meandering" and "irreverent" approach to bookmaking, where the craftsmanship of letterpress printing meets highly creative, often provocative, poetic writing.
