Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketching Rambles in Holland It might have been more to the interest and profit of the reader had the partner of these sketching rambles presented me, and explained my peculiar position in this, our joint effort. Knowing however, as well I do, his persistent and sometimes tiresome modesty, I feel that I have little hope of aid from his quarter. I must explain my unwonted appearance here as an author as best I may, not forgetting to premise that if there be any appreciable amount of credit to this, our production, I am not loath to take my fair share of it, while he, dear fellow, will be apt to make it unpleasant all round should he not have more than his share of any blame that may fall to us. When my friend first proposed that I should join him in a vagarious wander over the untrodden ways of unfrequented Holland, the alluring scheme included in the party a certain writer of charming sketches of travel and of just such roving as we proposed to enjoy.
