According to Wikipedia: 'Ebenezer Cooke (ca. 1665 - ca. 1732), a London-born poet, wrote what some scholars consider the first American satire: 'The Sotweed Factor, or A Voyage to Maryland, A Satyr' (1708). He has been fictionalized by John Barth as the comically innocent protagonist of The Sot-Weed Factor, a novel in which a series of fantastic misadventures leads Cooke to write his poem. As Barth explained, The Sot-Weed Factor began with the title and, of course, Ebenezer Cooke's original poem. . . . Nobody knows where the real chap is buried; I made up a grave for Ebenezer because I wanted to write his epitaph.' '
