Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handy Andy, Vol. 1 The reprinting of the foregoing address, attached to the First Edition, sufficiently implies that my feelings and opinions respecting my country and my countrymen remain unchanged. So far, enough said. I desire, however, to add a few words to inform those Who may, for the first time, read the story in this the Fourth Edition, that the early pages were written fifteen years ago, as a magazine article; - that the success of that article led to the continuation of the subject in other articles, and so on, till, eventually, twelve monthly numbers made up a book. A story thus originated could not be other than sketchy and desultory, and open to the captiousness of over-fastidious criticism: it was never meant to be a work of high pretension -only one of those easy trifles which afford a laugh, and require to be read in the same careless spirit of good humour in which they are written.
