Klappentext

To you, my gentle reader, I wish to say a foreword
of warning before you peruse the contents of this book.
I am not a poet nor a scholar, therefore you shall find neither
poems nor prose. Just dreams - Day Dreams - a bit of
romance, a bit of sentimentalism, a bit of philosophy, not
studied, but acquired by constant observation of that greatest
of masters! . . . Nature!

While lying idle, not through choice, but because forcibly
kept from my preferred and actual field of activity, I took
to dreams to forget the tediousness of worldly strife and the
boredom of jurisprudence's pedantic etiquette.
Happy indeed I shall be if my Day Dreams will bring
you as much enjoyment in the reading as they brought to
me in the writing.

Rudolph Valentino
