Description
Excerpt from The Flower of Gloster
A wedding present is always inadequate. I have no doubt if I gave you a dog, you would be best pleased with that; but you have Dandy, and lavish such affection on him as makes me at times regard him in the light of a thief; I have thought of other things besides dogs, and am reduced at last to offering you this - this chronicle of the journey of the Flower of Gloster. If ever it takes you - only for one hour - away from the need of forgetfulness to the joy of remembrance, then in some sense this little wedding present will not be so in adequate as it may seem.
