Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Marcus Gard sat at his library table apparently in rapt
contemplation of a pair of sixteenth century bronze inkwells,
strange twisted shapes, half man, half beast, bearing in their
breasts twin black pools. But his thoughts were far from their
grotesque beauty - centered on vast schemes of destruction and
reconstruction. The room was still, so quiet, in spite of its
proximity to the crowded life of Fifth Avenue, that one divined its
steel construction and the doubled and trebled casing of its many
windows. The walls, hung with green Genoese velvet, met a carved
and coffered ceiling, and touched the upper shelf of the
breast-high bookcases that lined the walls. No picture broke the
simple unity of color. Here and there a Donatello bronze
silhouetted a slim shape, or a Florentine portrait bust smiled with
veiled meaning from the quiet shadows. The shelves were rich in
books in splendid bindings, gems of ancient workmanship or modern
luxury, for the Great Man had the instinct of the masterpiece.
