Book excerpt: Excerpt from True Tales for My Grandsons The first question of the young when listening to a tale of adventure, Is it true expresses the natural desire of the sympa thetic mind. Should a story be fiction, at least one-half the interest would disappear, as the characters become unreal but if true, we share the joys and sorrows of the persons whose actions create the tale, and we appreciate the reality of the scene.
