Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Merry Tales The projector of this Series has had in mind the evident desire of our people, largely occupied with material affairs, for reading in a shape adapted to the amount of time at their disposal. Until recently this desire has been satisfied chiefly from foreign sources. Many reprints and translations of the little classics of other literatures than our own have been made, and much good has been done in this way. On the other hand, a great deal of rubbish has been distributed in the same fashion, to the undoubted injury of our popular taste. Now that a reasonable copyright law allows the publication of the better class of native literature at moderate prices, it has seemed fitting that these volumes should consist mainly of works by American writers. As its title indicates, the "Fiction, Fact, and Fancy Series" will include not only fiction and poetry, but such essays, monographs, and biographical sketches as may appear, from time to time, to be called for. To no writer can the term "American" more justly be applied than to the humorist whose "Merry Tales" are here presented.
