Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Palissy the Huguenot Potter: A True Tale
The readers of this little book may ask, with great propriety, What is meant by a true tale and the an swer to this question shall be very explicit, as it is of great importance that there should be no misunderstanding as to the matter of truth or fiction.
What is known of the history of Palissy is gathered from his writings, which are written in the form of dia lognes, and into which he has incorporated short narratives of the events of his own life, and of the occurrences which took place under his own eyes. These, and a few incidental notices of him in contemporary writers, are the sources whence the materials for his life have been gathered.
