Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Two Captains: A Romance of Bonaparte and Nelson Yes, gentle reader, if you have given the matter a thought, - being a reader I assume that you are thoughtful, - you have divined that this is an Historical Novel. If you belong to that unfortunate class which takes no delight in that ancient and honorable, and to me fascinating, - to say nothing of its usefulness - form of romance, lay the book aside, commend yourself for the lofty conception you cherish as to what real high-class fiction should be, and which you will not permit to be contaminated or vitiated by contact with a mere story or romance like this, and go on your red-bloodless way rejoicing, ignorant of what you miss, and therefore - by all the canons of ancient aphorism - happy.
