Excerpt from Annals of a Publishing House, Vol. 1: William Blackwood and His Sons, Their Magazine and Friends
Unfortunately it was not given to the projector of this scheme to live to witness its commencement. My uncle died after materially adding to the history of the firm without having had time to superintend the chronicling of its past.
A few years ago, when I was talking with Mrs Oliphant over some new outlet for her ceaseless literary activity, the happy thought struck me of asking her to carry out my uncle's idea and to become the historian of the firm in whose service she was already an honoured veteran. For forty years she had worked incessantly for the 'Magazine, ' intimate with its history, thoroughly imbued with all its traditions, and very loyal to its past. Mrs Oliphant eagerly accepted the trust, entered into its fulfilment with even more than her wonted enthusiasm, and, with a pathetic prescience of what was to come, regarded the work as a fitting completion of her long and strenuous literary life.
