Book Description
Excerpt from The Land of Every Man Preston, whom I had warned, to whom I had suggested some such interpretation of his coming, was a man Of humour. Moreover, the situation was no novel one. You are all like that, ' he had said, all of you who haven't been to the United States and especially your women.' He answered my mother's questions with an admirable restraint; her illusions were safe from the moment he entered - not through him should they suffer disarray! I think he rather strength ened them. The more the merrier, ' he seemed to say; they make for happiness.' I have always liked Preston, and to-night I liked him better than at any time before.
