Excerpt from Gentle France This is how this book came to be written. In the month of August, 1909, the "Alliance des maisons d'education chretienne" held its thirty-second Annual Conference at Nancy. Among other questions it discussed the reading books in general use in the schools, came to the conclusion that new ones were required, and did me the honour of asking me to write one. I was not aware that I had been singled out for nomination, and was only informed of it some weeks later. I had other schemes, other work on hand. I thought I should not have time to undertake this and at first I refused. I was wrong. I considered the matter, and my reasons for declining, which I had thought were ample, no longer seemed sufficient.
