Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Young Heads on Old Shoulders Here are a few good old-fashioned-looking stories under a title that needs a word of explanation. We have all heard of Feuds, Conspiracies, Injured Innocents, and so on; and now, as in a puppet show, the performance is to consist of these well-worn plots, with the chief parts played by small actors, who will often be found laughing at us out of the corner of their eyes all the time that they are mimicking the lofty strut and tragic frown of their elders in fiction. The readers are expected to laugh, too, at the figure cut by these Young Heads on old Shoulders; but when they have done laughing the writer hopes that he will have helped to put some kindly and sensible thoughts into the real heads that are still upon young shoulders.
