About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from The British Partizan: A Tale the of Olden Time The following beautiful Novelette appeared originally in the pages of the Augusta Mirror, a literary periodical published in Augusta, Georgia, some twenty-five'years ago, and for which' it was written by its gifted author, a young lady of South Caro lina, in competition for a prize offered-by the publisher for the best romance founded on incidents in the revolutionary history of Georgia and South Carolina: Through the medium of the Miro it acquired a popularity at the time only limited by the circulation of that periodical, and what was remarkable in that day of our literary as well as commercial; it: t political, vasl salage to the North, it elicited the most ﬂattering encomiums from the Northern literary journals - the Knickerbocker declaring that it approached more nearly to the style and genius of Sir walter scott, than any vel that had yet been written this side of the Atlantic. To meet the demand for the story an edi tion was printed in book form, only a small portion of which, however, reached the public, the greater part of the edition hav ing been destroyed while in sheets by the ﬂood which inundated Augusta in 1840. Circumstances prevented the publication of a second edition of the book, and in a few years the british? Partizan, at first so much sought for, had passed out of print, and in time out of the memory of the public. In reproducing it w from the pages of perhaps the only copy of the Mirror? Extant, the publishers are actuated t less by a high apprecia tion of its literary merits, than by the belief that it is a story peculiarly suited to the times in which we live. It is a tale of true love, wrought out amid the stirring scenes and harsh vicis situdes of partizan strife, in which the actors are the representa tives of real characters, whose aspirations and passions, whose virtues and vices, trials and sufferings, triumphs and misfortunes, are-developed and portrayed in an ideal history of intense dra matic interest.
