Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from 'Verts, or the Three Creeds, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel
I mean to devote the opening chapter to myself and my surroundings, But, dear me, what a time it must take to write a three-volume novel! I have, not got to the end of my second side of foolscap, and I reckon I shall have to write thirty-five for each chapter. It seems like cutting the first sod for a railway, or laying the first brick for a cathedral. Of course this is all inartistic - a sort of peg on which to hang my subsequent story, and not by any means the story itself.
