Excerpt from The Young Hussar, or Lady Iris's Adventure: A Story of Love and WarNoouraged by the success of my first attempt at literary fame, and stimulated to further emulation by the favourable reception and popularity bestowed by a propitious public on my first production, i. E., Life of a British Soldier, and feeling, like most Irishmen, an inex haustible store of fun and buoyancy of spirit within me, led me to believe that I could further contribute to a grateful community another narrative founded on fact, not only abounding in facetious effusions, which will, I am certain, cause much interest, and a hearty laugh with out much expense. But the moral is also transcendent. Its perusal cannot fail to impart both knowledge and pleasure. While it shows that the way of the transgressor is hard, it also verifies that to be virtuous and magnani mous is to be happy.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
