Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Plays of Near and Far: Including If
Believing plays to be solely for the stage, I have never before allowed any Of mine to be printed until they had first faced from a stage the judg ment Of an audience, to see if they were entitled to be called plays at all. A successful production also has been sometimes a moral support to me when some critic has said, as for instance of A Night at an Inn, that though it reads passably it could never act.
