Excerpt from Loyal Hearts and TrueEsting book, Marching with Gomez, and to him as well I owe my acquaintance with old Rosa, plucky little Paco and the others. For details of life aboard the receiving ship I am deeply indebted to Captain Merrill Miller, of the United States Navy, and for other important data to an oficial pamphlet compiled by Lieutenant Te j eiro, of the Spanish Navy. There are several real people in this book, some of them famous enough to be known instantly. Whenever these famous people have anything to say it is in their own words that they speak, and not in mine, I assure you. I believe I have furnished Admiral Philip with one or two harmless remarks, but I am so fortunate as to know him well enough to feel confident that I am forgiven beforehand. All this by way of a needed word of explanation and of acknowledgment.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
