 Title:  Preface to the Water Witch [a machine-readable transcription]  
 Published:  1996 
 Description: It was a bold attempt to lay the scene of a work like this, on the coast of America. We have had our Buccaneer on the water, and our witches on the land, but we believe this is the first time occasion on which the rule has been reversed. After an experience that has now lasted more than twenty years, the result has shown that the public prefers the original order of things. In other words, the book has proved a comparative failure.
