The History Of My Own Times PDF Download

Excerpt from History of My Own Times: Or, the Life and Adventures of William Otter, Sen;, Comprising a Series of Events, and Musical Incidents Altogether Original The purpose for which the author principally intends his book, you will find in the sequel of this preface; that many words will not be spent to inform all those into whose hands his production may fall, that it is not expressly for the use and instruction of children - who, being as it were, blank paper, taking all upon credit; if that were the authors intention, the first comer might write saint or devil upon it, which he pleased. To avoid such a verdict being pronounced, he does not intend either to labor very hard; that it was hastily got up, and ushered into the world before it was properly matured - as hasty publications are denounced by the public as a "crime."
