But, perhaps, the best plan for me to pursue, in order to make you fully understand the matter in all its bearings, will be to begin at the beginning, as your regular longshore professional storytellers say, in the good old-fashioned way, without any more backing and filling, and veering and hauling, which mode of progression, as every decent sailor knows, only tends to take a craft off her proper true course, and make lots of leeway; whereas, if we sail on free, with a fair wind and a steady helm, youll soon be able to follow in my wake and form a correct opinion of your own as to the merits of my logical conclusions. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
