Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of Stephen Compton: A Novel It appears to be imperative to say, beforehand, that this book contains nothing that has been borrowed from current events or persons. Almost everything here was planned eight years ago. Indeed - and this is said with diffidence - some suggested measures of legislation have had to be dropped, for different reasons, but chiefly because they have now become law, or were found to be too ponderous and complicated for use in a novel; where, after all, the bulk of the matter must be a human story - the more or less common doings of such men and women as we see around us. In those days - before "Fishers of the Sea" had broken down a barred and bolted door - I, unknown and much rejected, had the temerity to design a series of seven novels, each one being intended to exhibit a certain phase of our industrial and commercial life. In that set of seven this book was mapped out as "Workers at the Forge," with a sequel to be named "Makers of the Law."
