Oldtown Folks - Professor Harriet Beecher Stowe - Bog

Bag om Oldtown Folks

Gentle Reader, It is customary to omit prefaces. I beg you to make an exception in my particular case; I have something I really want to say. I have an object in this book, more than the mere telling of a story, and you can always judge of a book better if you compare it with the author's object. My object is to interpret to the world the New England life and character in that particular time of its history which may be called the seminal period. I would endeavor to show you New England in its seed-bed, before the hot suns of modern progress had developed its sprouting germs into the great trees of today.- Harriet Beecher Stowe in the character of Horace Holyoke
