It is a must-read for fans of Joseph Conrad and anyone interested in the history of literature.In the career of the most unliterary of writers, in the sense that literary ambition had never entered the world of his imagination, the coming into existence of the first book is quite an inexplicable event. In my own case I cannot trace it back to any mental or psychological cause which one could point out and hold to. The greatest of my gifts being a consummate capacity for doing nothing, I cannot even point to boredom as a rational stimulus for taking up a pen.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
