From the PREFACE:
IT SEEMS to be the custom to say a few words to the public, when offering a collection of Chess Problems, and this custom I shall shortly avail myself of. The stratagems contained in this book are a selection from the many Problems composed by me, and published during the last six years in all the leading journals and magazines at home and abroad.
I do not claim for my Problems any especial or extraordinary profundity, nor do I intend to set myself up as a rival to other Chess authors; but I believe that any Chess-player who takes the trouble to look through my book, will ï¬nd in it amusement and pleasure.
I do not pretend to be able to give hints on construction, or to lay down dogmatic rules in Problem Art.
In conclusion, I ought to state that I have always been treated with the greatest courtesy by every Chess Editor with whom I have corresponded, with, I regret to say, one notable exception.
