Abstract

Within the comparatively small compass of these pages, certain limitations are necessarily imposed upon the writer. It is physically impossible to include a complete survey of every novel written by an American author during the past thirty years. In the first place, many of our American fiction creators have taken up residence in Europe, from where they now write their novels; contrarily, also, many foreign authors have emigrated to America to market their wares. Owing to the difficulty of tracing every clue concerning a writer's nationality, many barriers arise to block an attempted, complete survey. Then, too, the present writer would to read every one of the novels written during this thirty-year period --- an impossible procedure.
