Synopsis
Excerpt from A Royal Gentleman This tale was written in 1868-9, amid the scenes and shortly after some of the veritable incidents which it describes. It was originally published in 1874, under the title of "Toinette," the name of the principal female character, although not the pivotal person on whom the whole action of the drama turns. The book was written because its incidents, in effect, had passed before my eyes with such vividness that I could not but write. At that time (1868-9) I had no idea of publishing. The simple delight of portraying what I observed was my only motive. In the summer of 1865, before the battle-smoke had well cleared away, I settled near Greensborough, N. C., in the hope that a milder climate might aid me to prolong a life somewhat shattered by the shocks of war. My idea of Southern life was mainly derived from the literature of the era before the war. It is true that service in the army had somewhat modified it, but in the main I venture to say that it was a fair reflex of the idea and sentiment of the intelligent Northern man of my age at that period. After I went South, the contrast between these pre-notions and what I saw of the life around me, and the fresh relics of the life which had just passed away, impressed me keenly, and soon became a subject of engrossing interest.
