Opis: Gerald Fitzgerald, the Chevalier - Lever Charles James

Excerpt from Gerald Fitzgerald, the Chevalier: A Novel

The Publishers feel that some explanation is necessary concerning the tardy publication in book form of this story. Gerald Fitzgerald appeared as a serial in the Dublin University Magazine. The Magazine at the time was changing hands, Lever's old friend and publisher, James M'Glashan, having just died. Lever was always eager to avoid trouble, and ever readier to undertake new work than to concern himself about work already done; and possibly - for there is not sufficient evidence to speak with certainty - owing to some trouble with the new proprietors of the Dublin University Magazine, he decided to put aside Gerald Fitzgerald. When he was rearranging his novels for a fresh issue, shortly before his death, he omitted a few of his stories from the collection, but for no adequate reason which can be discovered. He was assisted in the preparation of this collected edition by his daughter, Mrs. Nevill, who died last year. Mrs. Nevill could not account for the omission of Gerald Fitzgerald, and left it to the judgment of the present publishers whether the work should be issued or not.
