Excerpt from Down the Orinoco in a Canoe To read a book to which a friend has asked you to write a preface is an unusual - nay, even a pedantic - thing to do. It is customary for a preface-monger to look contemptuously at the unopened bundle of his friends proofs, and then to sit down and overflow you his opinions upon things created, and those which the creator has left in chaos. I plead guilty at once to eccentricity, which is worse than the sin of witchcraft for witchcraft at one time may have exposed one to the chance of the stake; but eccentricity at all times has placed one outside the pale of Hall right-thinking men.
