Excerpt from The Le Blond Book 1920: Being a History Detailed Catalogue of the Work of Le Blond Co, By the Baxter Process, With a Glance at the Other Licenses
The daily fear that this little, yet wonderfully great, country of ours was in danger, the anxious and continuous perusal of newspapers relating to the march of events in the Great War, the call to arms of those near and dear, and upon whom in my daily life I relied for help, as well as the necessity of undertaking other duties, so sapped my energy and further reduced the time at my disposal, that the completion of this volume - which some time before the outbreak of hostilities I contemplated and began - had inevitably to be postponed to a more favourable occasion. But now gladly do I turn from the carnage and horrors - but, withal, the heroism - of that great conflagration to the peaceable and pleasant communion with my friends and readers about more civilised and civilising things.
