Anotace knihy

Excerpt from Alice: Or; The Painter's Story Some months since, there appeared in the New-York Times a notice of Mr. Yates's novel, Land at Last It showed a remarkable resemblance to exist between the chief incident in the groundwork of that story and the corresponding event in the first canto of Alice. I know nothing further, but am told by one to whom I confided the comparison between the two books, that this and the peculiar color of the heroine's eyes, identical in both and in both particularized, are the sole points of actual resemblance. But they are also important as they are noticeable ones. Now, Alice was commenced in London, March 6, 1852, and on the completion of the first part was tendered to Mr. Chapman, of Chapman & Hall, Piccadilly. In his answer, now before me, dated May 1, '52, he spoke of it favorably, "but as it was a tale thought it essential to see the whole before deciding." The second canto was commenced in Mannheim, the 17th of June succeeding, and finished in London, December 23, of the same year. But in the uncertainty of final acceptance I refused to write more, and the poem was declined. The two cantos then passed through the hands of Mr. Moxon of Bond-street.
