Présentation de l'éditeur

The writing of Les Trois Rois was undertaken with a view to its appearance as a Magazine article. The subject, however, grew so in the sketching, in face of the desire to keep it within compass, that, completed, it was found to be quite out of size for the setting for which it was intended. It was then decided to present it in its present shape. Books treating of the industries of Pittsburg have already been written, but they consist, all, so exclusively of Facts, sir; nothing but Facts, that only they, the figuring few like Gradgrind, with a rule and a pair of scales, and the multiplication table always in their pocket, are willing to undertake their reading. The unciphering many have no relish for that sort of entertainment. They do not object exactly to Facts, but prefer that they should be presented in some form other, and less uninviting, than in the naked with something of fair flesh about them, rather than in the bare skeleton. To meet that preference to show in such a light as to invite the popular eye, and so inform the popular mind of what with its forces and resources Pittsburg is is what has been here attempted.
