Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mrs. Jordan, Vol. 1
Prefaces are seldom honoured with much attention. They are commonly passed over until curiosity is completely gratified by the contents of the work. But a few lines, in which an author must speak of himself, may, at a moment of leisure, attract the reader's notice; and certainly should never detain it long. I have merely to lay before him the reasons that induced me to com pose the work now published.
