Article on 〃The American Historical Novel;〃 by Paul Lester Ford; in
The Atlantic Monthly; December; 1897。
'In this article a definition of the 〃Historical Novel〃 at variance with
my own; has been suggested。 In spite of Mr。 Fords argument; I am still
of opinion that the line of demarcation between the Historical Novel
proper and the Novel of Character or Adventure can be more clearly
drawn than he allows。 I was careful; when dealing with this question in
my Introduction; to avoid making the test one of actual historical accuracy;
but there are; I have implied; certain readily…verifiable personages and
events which form a basis amply sufficient for purposes of distinction。 The
pirates of 〃Treasure Island〃 are taken (as Mr。 Ford says) from actual
figures of the Eighteenth Century; but under my definition Stevenson's
novel is not thereby constituted 〃historical〃 in the strict sense。'

Some of the Professor's remarks convey the impression that he disbelieves
in ANY reconstruction of the Past; such an attitude is; surely; unfavourable
to History itself; which is always more than any mere statement of
〃facts。〃'

NOTE。
Some of the American Public Libraries (notably Boston) have issued
