Description
Excerpt from The Planter a Novel
It has been truly said that we learn more history from our novels than our text-books. One might almost add that our fiction exercises a wider influence, is more powerful to mould public opinion, than the pronouncements of our parliaments. In View of this influence, it behooves a writer to go Slowly over new ground, and to make certain that, while depicting life, his book reflects the truth. Never ought he to be more careful than when exaggeration or distortions may react harmfully upon living persons or enter prises still existent. Once sure of his facts, however, it is equally incumbent upon him to hew to the line, let the chips fall where they may.
