To the Reader:

This book makes no pretense whatever of being ‘learned.’ The author has brooded over these things for many years, painfully aware of the overshadowing mass of research and scholarship, compared with which her efforts are no more than little glow-worm lamps in the night. . . .

Such a book, too, can have no “style.” It must, all the time, be struggling with the necessity to create a conversation between the accepted facts of history and the visions of the Hills of Dream, and it has to be a friendly conversation and not an argument.

— Eleanor C. Merry, The Flaming Door
