this is by no means a full account of everything we did and saw on our journey into cook Wanna land. There are many things I should have liked to dwell upon at length, such as the indigenous flora and fauna, the magnificent system of military organisation in force in that country, the curious legends which I collected about the chain on. But it saved us from destruction in the great battle loop and also about the silent ones, or colossi at the mouth of the Stalactite Cave. The fact of the matter is, I thought that the best plan would be to tell my story in a plain, straightforward manner, and now it only remains for me to offer apologies. For my blunt way of writing, I can but say an excuse of it that I am more accustomed to handle a rifle than a pen and cannot make any pretence to the grand literary flights and flourishes which I see in novels. Well, sometimes I like to read a novel. I suppose they the flights and flourishes are desirable, and I regret not being able to supply them. But at the same time I cannot help thinking that simple things are always the most impressive and that books are easier to understand when they are written in plain language. Though perhaps I have no wrecked set up an opinion on such a matter. Mhm. A sharp spear runs the cuckoo Wanna saying needs no polish. And on the same principle, I venture to hope that a true story, however strange it may be, does not require to be decked out in fine words. Alan Court, right? Yeah.
