Excerpt from A Missourian in the Far West: Or the World as Seen by a Stranger Were it not for the fact that books meet critical eyes and skeptical minds a preface to a work like this would not be necessary; but as long as the sun has shone upon the ama tent's green field of energy no one has ventured to scatter an edition of a book broadcast through the land without laying down a few statements in the beginning to protect him from the wild conclusions of a doubting world. If an author wishes to be given due credit for that which he attempts, instead of undue credit for that which he does not attempt, he must ln sert his purpose to keep the wayward minds of his readers from going astray and to give all who may try to unravel any tangled bit of matter a fair chance to see things in his own original way.
