Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ayesha, Vol. 1 of 3: The Maid of Kars
To those who have visited Athens, from a page out of the history of one of whom I have taken the circumstance which forms part of the groundwork of my story, I venture to ask, whether probabilities have been sacrificed? I feel satisfied that such events as I have ven tared to introduce might have occurred; and in a novel, we are told, what is not utterly impossible, may be liberally adopted.
