Excerpt from Lysbeth: A Tale of the Dutch
There are, roughly, two ways of writing an historical romance - the first to choose some notable and leading characters of the time to be treated, and by the help of history attempt to picture them as they were; the other, to make a study of that time and history with the country in which it was enacted, and from it to deduce the neces sary characters.
