The story and sketches were published in 1904 as a memorial tribute after the early death of its author/artist, James McBryde. University scholar and ghost-story writer M. R. James (one of the trio of friends inspiring the story) provided the introduction.

McBryde's artistry is phenomenal, foreshadowing the loose humorous skill of Dr. Seuss. The story is handwritten, seemingly requiring the attention of a cryptographer, but this edition includes a translation of the whimsical writing.
