"Since its first appearance in Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine in 1899 and 1900, Lord Jim (1900) has been acclaimed as a modernist masterwork. Its narrative innovations and psychological complexity make it one of the most influential fictions written in the twentieth century and it has challenged and stimulated generations of readers as well as writers on and of fiction. This edition, established through modern textual scholarship, presents Conrad's novel and its preface in a form more authoritative than any so far printed. The Introduction situates the novel in Conrad's career and traces its sources and contemporary reception. The explanatory notes identify literary and historical references and real-life places and indicate Conrad's main influences. Glossaries, maps and illustrations are provided for further context, as well as a new transcription of 'Tuan Jim: A Sketch', a partial draft of the novel, and appearing in print for the first time, Conrad's contract for the book"--

"I am delighted to have had the privilege of meeting you, Miss Chapin," said Ensign Dave Darrin, lifting his uniform cap and bowing low at the end of the brief conversation. "And my thanks to you, Captain Chapin, for having afforded us the great pleasure." Ensign Dan Dalzell, U. S. Navy, delivered himself in similar fashion.

Just as suddenly, however, the pair checked their progress, to stare across the bridge. On the opposite side, leaning against the rail, stood a Chinaman in rather rich apparel, with a decidedly sinister cast of countenance. "Why is Old 'Burnt-face' staring so hard after Miss Chapin and her brother?" muttered Dalzell. "I'm blessed if I know," returned Dave Darrin. "I've a good mind to cross over and put your question to the Chinaman." "I've a greater mind to throw him into the Pasig," growled Dalzell. "I'm not strong on race lines or color, but I don't believe that any yellow man has a right to glare like that at an American girl."
