Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Geraldine: A Souvenir of the St. Lawrence As they are about sending to press this illustrated edition of "Geraldine," its publishers forward to me a proof of the original Preface, and kindly ask, "Have you anything new, or different, or additional, that you would like to say?" At once I recall certain critiques of the book which have appeared, and wonder if any word from its unknown author will serve convincing purpose; for the critiques mentioned did not hesitate to discredit a simple statement which that original Preface made, and to affirm, despite of it, that "Geraldine" was written in imitation of "Lucile." Will they now accept a reiteration of the fact that this effort was determined upon before the publication of "Lucile," and was put into complete form before the writer had read, or heard read, or otherwise learned the character of that rhythmic romance? I fear not. Yet the fact stands; and I prefer leaving it thus on simple record, unsupported by personality or argument, - for the many to acknowledge, as they have done heretofore; for the few to doubt, if they choose.
