Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Coming Home To have written well a book, to have developed a story, or drawn a character true to nature, and to the full acceptance of the reader, almost necessarily implies previous experiment, and oftentimes fruitless toil, before the effort becomes an achievement, or the achievement a victory. But, happily, the writer of the present little volume can hardly be said to have appeared in any mere initiatory page, or experimental work, however small; for each one of her numerous tales, whether in her well-read and much-admired "Sunbeam Stories," later "Sibert´s Wold," and others, as they fell rapidly from her. pen, has been a success. A simple announcement, therefore, of another work, fresh from her hand, without prefatory word or introductory remark from her American editor, as elsewhere observed, would seem to be sufficient. It, therefore, but becomes my most agreeable part in these opening pages, simply to suggest to her many admirers the exceeding truthfulness and naturalness of the following tale, and to assure them that they will find in "Coming Home," that the author has come more effectually and affectionately into the wide and tender heart of humanity, than in any of her previous works.
