Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Burgomaster´s Wife: A Romance My reason for dedicating a book, and particularly this book, to you, the only sister of my dead father, needs no word of explanation between us. From early childhood you have been a dear and faithful friend to me, and certainly have not forgotten how industriously I labored, while your guest seventeen years ago, in arranging the material which constitutes the foundation of the "Burgomaster´s Wife." You then took a friendly interest in many a note of facts, that had seemed to me extraordinary, admirable, or amusing, and when the claims of an arduous profession prevented me from pursuing my favorite occupation of studying the history of Holland, my mothers home, in the old way, never wearied of reminding me of the fallow material, that had previously awakened your sympathy. At last I have been permitted to give the matter so long laid aside its just dues. A beautiful portion of Holland´s glorious history affords the espalier, around which the tendrils of my narrative entwine. You have watched them grow, and therefore will view them kindly and indulgently. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
