Book Description

Excerpt from The Phantom Future: A Novel The phantom future is an early and im mature attempt which has at some trouble and expense been withdrawn from circulation in England. Seeing that under existing copyright law the book is unprotected in the United States from the unauthorized enterprise of certain pub lishers, the author finds himself practically forced to issue an edition of this and other early works. He does this in full consciousness of a hundred defects which the most careful revision cannot eliminate. The book has been corrected by the author, who now submits it to the generosity of the critic and the good sense of the reader with the assurance that had he been in a position to choose he would not have sought this indulgence.
