Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Modern Quixote: Or Wife's Fool of a Husband In complying with my request, he made me promise that, if I was alive when his work was completed, I would write the preface. I never should have agreed to this, had I thought he would finish the task during my natural life; but, after working day and night with 1118 usual energy, he has brought the work to a close in an astonishingly brief period. If the rest of the world becomes half as enthusiastic over the reading as he has been over the writing, there will not be enough printing-presses in existence to supply the demand. However, since I have reviewed his production, I am bound to confess that his enthusiasm is not altogether misplaced. I am very, very proud Of him, notwithstanding he has written some things which I sincerely wish had been left out. His pen-and-ink treatment Of myself is doubtless sincere would that I could say truthful - but I fear his affectionate heart has, in some instances, blinded his more critical judgment toward my numerous short-comings. I have felt it my duty to erase a few hundred of the endearing terms he had generously applied to me. Realizing that, while I myself enjoy them so exceedingly in our private life, the disinterested public might fail to appreciate them. I feel that he has not done full justice to his own character, for he has selected for publication many of the most ridiculous episodes, though doubtless they appear to him, and perhaps may be considered by the reader to have been exceedingly trying events in his career. I am certain that if I were to publish what might be said concerning Mr. Berkeley, it would take a larger volume than his to hold the words that should depict the other side Of his life. But, in making the selection of these peculiar experiences, Mr. Berkeley has had an Object, namely: to teach the great lesson that impulsiveness is a terrible foe, which, if allowed its sway, is liable to lead one into all manner Of excesses and difficulties.
