Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Kaleidoscopic Lives: A Companion Book to Frontier and Indian Life In the introduction of this little book the writer hopes to contribute his mite in affirmation of the oft quoted saying that "truth is stranger than fiction. The scenes described are but realities in manifold diversity of human character that is to be seen in everyday life, though not always or regularly made note of by students of the diverse in this living, breathing mass of beings that come and go. Our exhibit is from a few turns only, as seen through the lens of a kaleidoscope and in the swirls, we witness the transformation from light to shade - from moss agate to diamonds - from pearl to oyster shell. In some of the earlier editions of "Frontier and Indian Life." two or three of the sketches herein appearing were a part of that work, but after a more perfect conception of the facts related and some added information, were naturally placed under proper title. The author also deems it necessary to state that while the truthfulness of these strangly dramatic doings herein chronicled will stand without question, but for reasons that the reader may readily understand, in a few of the characters a non de plume is used, and that while their lineal tracing may be vague, the renditions are none the less perfect even though in masked appellation.
