Excerpt from Monaco and Its Gaming Tables IT was with no intention of writing a book that I began what I may call this treatise on gambling. During a lengthened residence at Nice last winter, I had joined a committee which was formed there for the purpose of having public gambling at Monte Carlo suppressed. With the view of aiding this movement, I commenced to write what was intended to be a newspaper article on the subject. As the writing proceeded, the subject widened, and my treatise extended beyond the limits suitable for the columns of a newspaper, so that it became necessary to publish it in a more imposing form. Besides, my spirit had been stirred within me as the magnitude of the evil about which I was writing became more and more disclosed, and I was on that account the more willing to deliver my message by the still small voice of a little book, which might be read in the quiet of the family circle, rather than by a cry from the house-tops, through the public press. One disadvantage, however, resulting from this departure from the original intention, was the compression and over-condensation with which the subject had been treated, with the view of making it suitable for the hurried reading and summary dismissal which is the general fate of newspaper articles.
