Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Credible Chronicles of the Patchwork Village: ´Sconset by the Sea To the readers of this book who purchased it unadvisedly and without fault of their own, I owe and I tender an apology. Nothing is due to those who successfully resisted the blandishments of the publishers. They are able to take care of themselves. It was written at different times and in varying moods. Like a ´Sconset cottage it was made in sections, without unity of design, and certainly with no thought of inflicting it upon a patient and long-suffering public. Any credible statements contained in it were concocted without malicious premeditation, and I am not conscious of even a mischievous intent rankling within my bosom. Whatever is absolutely false was introduced under the belief that draped fiction would be perused by modest readers in preference to the naked truth. But it did dawn upon my understanding that, if its parts were securely lashed together, the total result would sell and that I would thereby greatly profit. I don´t believe that anybody´s mental, moral, physical, or financial constitution will suffer an irrecoverable strain by its publication; unless it be the publishers´. But they take their chances. If the event shall prove that I am mistaken in this view, I give due notice that any attempt to recover damages, either actual or exemplary, will be resisted by every device known to the law.
