Synopsis

Excerpt from Giants in the Earth: A Saga of the Prairie

I am aware of the slight Similarity existing between Johan Bojer''s The Emigrants and certain portions of the First Book of my novel; and lest the reader should consider me guilty Of having plagiarized him, I find it necessary to Ofi''er the information that The land-taking was in the hands of the Norwegian book dealers a little better than one month before Bojer''s book appeared. In a letter to me, dated January 11, 1925, Mr. Bojer writes: It certainly was fortunate for me that I got my book finished when I did. Had it appeared much later, I should have been ac cused of having plagiarized you.
