Excerpt from Westward by Rail: The New Route to the East

Although two series of letters, tie one entitled 'New York to San Francisco' the other 'A Visit to the Mormons' which recently appeared in The Daily News, form the basis of this volume, yet those who have perused these letters will find that the revision they have undergone is so thorough, and the additions made to them are so considerable, as to constitute the volume itself an entirely new work in substance, if not in name. Like the famous stockings of Sir John Cutler, these productions now resemble, in general outline only, that which they were originally.

Seldom, indeed, should contributions to newspapers be reprinted precisely as they were when first published. A journalist must adapt himself to his readers if he would gain their confidence and produce a vivid and lasting impression.
