Excerpt from Angels Ministers: Four Plays of Victorian Shade CharacterWith this period of history those who were once participants in its life can deal more intimately and with more verisimilitude than can those whose literary outlook comes later. We can write of it as no sequent generation will find possible; for we are bone of its bone and flesh of its flesh; and when we go, something goes with us which will require for its reconstruction, not the natural piety of a returned native, such as I claim to be, but the cold, calculating art of literary excursionists whose domicile is else where.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
