A Message from the Sea

We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a colour PDF version of this work for free. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature.
