Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Captain´s Toll-Gate All this, and much more, crowded the busy years until the Angel of Death stood in the path; and the journey was ended. In regard to the present story - The Captain´s Toll-Gate - although it is now after his death first published, it was all written and completed by Mr. Stockton himself. No other hand has been allowed to add to, or to take from it. Mr. Stockton had so strong a feeling upon the literary ethics involved in such matters that he once refused to complete a book which a popular and brilliant author, whose style was thought to resemble his own, had left unfinished. Mr. Stockton regarded the proposed act in the light of a sacrilege. The book, he said, should be published as the author left it. Knowing this fact, readers of the present volume may feel assured that no one has been permitted to tamper with it. Although the last book by Mr. Stockton to be published, it is not the last that he wrote. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
