Influenced by: Washington Irving's The Sketch Book (1819-1820). [From the author's Introduction]
A review in the Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser, 29 September 1838, infers that James Benson Martin planned at least one further volume. 'Mr. Martin, in his preface, speaks of laying a second volume before the public on the next Anniversary of the Colony, should his present venture meet with acceptation.' (2)
