Opis: Seth Way a Romance of the New Harmony Community (Classic Reprint) - Owen Caroline Dale

Excerpt from Seth Way a Romance of the New Harmony Community

All the improbable things in this story are true. The probable ones were invented by me.

In character and scientific attainments the hero is Thomas Say. But I have not dared to make his character so perfect nor his attainment so swift as were Says. In fiction they would not be believed.

As to the girl of the story, she is almost entirely drawn from a good and beautiful woman who lived in Harmony, and who undertook the headlong, unselfish enterprises which I have described.

The little girl, Columbine Neef, is my own mother set back a generation. I have referred to no other persons by fictitious names. The other characters are either pure fiction or actual Harmony people bearing their real names.

For the story of the New Harmony Community I am chiefly indebted to my dear grandmother, at whose knee I learned it, and who made the bright Community days more real to me than my own childhood.
