AUTHOR'S
NOTE: This book was written in 1917, during such leisure as my
efforts to bring America into the War on our side allowed me. Hence
my illusions on the subject, and the sad showing of Simon Iff at the
end. Need I add that, as the book itself demonstrates beyond all
doubt, all persons and incidents are purely the figment of a
disordered imagination? -- London, 1929. A.C.
