Preface

Name: The Mountains - Preface
Author: Stewart Edward White

The author has followed a true sequence of events practically in all particulars save in respect to the character of the Tenderfoot. He is in one sense fictitious; in another sense real. He is real in that he is the apotheosis of many tenderfeet, and that everything he does in this narrative he has done at one time or another in the author’s experience. He is fictitious in the sense that he is in no way to be identified with the third member of our party in the actual trip.
