Présentation de l'éditeur

The preface of a book is the easiest thing toT nite, and perhaps, of all literary essays it is the least read. I will leave that however, for the reader to answer, whether the mind approves itself or not in the mission it makes. The life of an author is no easy one though, however easily his prefaces may be written, and they who tread the literary path must nerve all their powers, physical as well as mental, to endure with fortitude the fickleness of the world; and not only this, but the rivalry of others who are striving for the same object. To bear with patience the sneers of those who are more sfuccessful, and the envy of those who are inferior. As soon as a book is published the author is known. He is no longer a private individual; he has entered the great arena of minds, where his own must retain its peculiar originality. It is in vain to conceal his name rom the world, for of all secrets, the secret of an author is the least safe.
