Excerpt from The Rose Dawn
The author has written this story mainly from personal experience and recollection. He has, however, used freely two books dealing with land boom days. These are T. S. Van Dyke"s Millionaires of a Day; and T. R. Sanford"s The Bursting of a Boom. From Van Dyke"s really classic description the psychological sequence has been followed very closely; and from the Sanford book some of the auctioneer "patter" has been lifted bodily. This has been done with full appreciation and gratitude: and the author wishes here to record his indebtedness.
