According to the dust wrapper the author "has here put into humorous, fast-moving verse the political scene as he has observed it in Washington over the last thirty years.... This timely political satire—in the famous Alexander Pope meter—exposes in humorous and lively, yet always wise terms, the foibles through which men win to power—and tend through power to hold power."
