Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Filibusters: A Romance
Throughout the event narrated in the following history there were two Influences at work, which, counting from start to finish, we regarded with a very different set of emotions.
At first, being ignorant of their bare existence, we ignored them with all completeness. We had confidence in our wit, and the strength of our own right hands, and felt fear for no man living.
Next, having the work of the Influences violently thrust against our wishes and our welfare, or, again, pulling in our favour, we considered them with awe and some fright, as men must do things which shoot mysterious arrows and boons out of nothingness.
