Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Kingdom of Gold: Dedicated to "Whomsoever," November 1888, Rejected by the Builders of Books for a Quarter of a Century
Upon a wave-polished boulder in a recess of the rocks on the eastern shore of Mystic Island, sat a lad clothed in the meagre garb of a tropical clime. With his bare feet resting on the pliant sand he formed little depressions into which the spent wave lets of the ocean found momentary rest, and then in a twinkling were displaced by a new-comer, that in turn leveled itself and became for an instant a miniature sea.
