After an exceedingly active life, on the border, in the mountains, mining, or on plains, cattle and sheep-raising, I find myself at sixty years old in Oakland - broke. I have no means of a livelihood. In youth and early manhood I could devise a means of making money. Now, old and sick, I can do nothing but write a book. The storm of poverty and want is terrible. This is my only port, the writing of a book. A Chris tian gentleman, E. S. Fowler, goes my security to my publisher. He and others who heard my manuscript read, were good enough to call it very readable. In the following pages the ground is taken that God and the devil have been in the world from Adam's creation, battling for character for their kingdoms. God with the Holy Spirit and the word of his truth endeavors to lead man up into a better and higher life. The position is taken that it is his privilege to go on learning of God in this world until he reaches a plane of happi ness perfectly incomprehensible to the intellect of the unredeemed man. But man being totally depraved, and loving darkness rather than light, the devil, with his vast cunning and experience, has largely the advantage, and is peopling his kingdom more rapidly than God. He is in politics, shaping national measures to suit his purpose. He is in the courts, making judgesvfollow old precedents to the enslavement of mankind. He is in all those Governments where the land is all in the hands of the few. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
