He lived story-books, but, although he told them delectably, he had no love for a pen and absolutely declined to write them. Something had to be done. On one of his rare emersions from the Bush, as he made transitory passage through socalled civilized parts, to which he referred whimsically as people-infested geographical divisions, I extracted the greater part of the narrative set down. I found him a human of exceptional species, genus homo primitivus aestheticus, perhaps the only one of his particular variety, whom it seemed desirable and natural to have speak to you in his own person.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
