Excerpt from Doctor Grimshawes Secret: A Romance A Preface generally begins with a truism; and I may set out with the admission that it is not always expedient to bring to light the posthumous work of great writers. A man generally contrives to publish, during his lifetime, quite as much as the public has time or inclination to read; and his surviving friends are apt to show more zeal than discretion in dragging forth from his closed desk such undeveloped offspring of his mind as he himself had left to silence. Literature has never been redundant with authors who sincerely undervalue their own productions; and the sagacious critics who maintain that what of his own an author condemns must be doubly damnable, are, to say the least of it, as often likely to be right as wrong. Beyond these general remarks, however, it does not seem necessary to adopt an apologetic attitude. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
