Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Writings of Major Jack Downing of Downingville: Away Down East in the State of Maine Sum of the folks telld me that a preface was of no use in this edishon of my letters, but I guess a book without a preface is like a man without a head, and if a man wanted the head, every one knows what his boddy wud be wruth. But I want tu tell the folks jist this - There is a consarnt deal of letters publish in my name, that arnt ginuin; so I´ve resolved tu print my rale ones, and lave out the counterfeits. I kinder feel tho, that so many attempts to imitate my letters is complimentary, as every one likes to rite letters in my name, and the nearer they cum to the likeness the better they are. This is a sartan sine that I am popular, and that my day will cum as soon as the Ginerals is past. I have agreed tu publish this in Filadelfy, that I may have a chance to be more extensively known in the Key-stone-State where, I´m told they have nominated me, and where they are rale whalers of fellers for Dimocrasy and the Gineral, who never change a bit but remains true Jacksonmen, in spite of all Jackson can do. In this edishon I have put in my last letters. I wont tu sho that there´s one man in the nation who is n´t afeard tu spake his mind. I wont tu let the people see that I´m honest, and that if I´m elected,they will have a man, who never deals in Orakles, or abstroos metafisiks, sich as my oppose little Martin does, to sho his larnin and make folks scratch their heads whil readin tu understand him. I wont tu let them see tu, that I have ritin qualifikashons for a President, that I´m the rale stuff, and no slouch.
