Excerpt from The Jones FamilyHE form in which this book was originally written has never satisfied me. Courteous men do not write outspoken letters of condemna tion and counsel to their acquaintances, and although my men and women were men and women of straw, I owed them polite treatment, to say the least. SO I have entirely rewritten the book, transforming the letters into sketches of personal types, and thus doing away with the seeming discourtesy and impertinence of the previous form of direct address. I believe that all that was valuable in the book has been re tained, and that the articles of which it is com posed will be read with more profit and pleasure in consequence of the change.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
