We decided ... to blend the old with the new in a journal we could call Ballarat Punch at the Mechanics'.'

The journal contains selections from Ballarat Punch together with new writing and explanations from the editors 'about the origin of the Punch concept and its adaptation to colonial life'.

Well, mainly, it is about writing: writing in the broadest terms; writing as history, as travelogue, as memoir, as biography, as poetry, but most all, as an internal world made palpable, and an external world made understandable.'
