Excerpt from Wigwam and War-Path: Or the Royal Chief in ChainsThe hon. A. B. Meacham has committed to me the difficult and delicate, yet delightful task of revising the manuscript and arranging the table of contents of the present work.I have endeavored to review every page as an impartial critic, and have, as far as possible, retained, in all its simplicity and beauty, the singularly eloquent and fascinating style of the gifted author. The changes which I have made have been, for the most part, quite immaterial - no more or greater than would be re quired in the manuscript of writers commonly called learned. In no case have I attempted (for the attempt would have been vain) to give shape and tone to the writer's thoughts. His mind was so full, both Of the comedy and the tragedy of his thrilling narrative, that it has ¿owed on like a mighty torrent, bidding defiance to any attempt either to direct or control.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
