Book excerpt: Excerpt from Persian Miniatures: Illustrated With Drawings "In good sooth, my masters, this is no door. But it is a little window which looketh into a great world." No, dubious reader. Your book is no treatise on those little pictures, sometimes gaily coloured, sometimes faintly sketched, of turbaned princes and flowering trees and dancing gazelles, which it has become so much the fashion to collect - and to forge. It contains not even one photograph of a true Persian miniature; though if the war had not made it impossible for me to get hold of a certain portrait by the great Behzad, I would have borrowed it to reflect distinction on my pages. And having learned by pungent experience that ye reviewer is somewhat given to jumping from a title to a conclusion, and then visiting his disappointment upon ye scribbler's head, I make it my duty to give warning as loudly as I may that no Orientalist need waste time in turning over these pages.
