Autograph inscription by Émile Zola to historian and journalist Maurice Dreyfous.

« I believe it necessary to collect, in this volume, the few articles that I published on the Dreyfus affair, during a period of three years, from December
1897 to December 1900, as events unfolded. When a writer has made judgments and taken responsibilities, in an affair of this gravity and scope, the strict duty is for him to place before the public's eyes
the entirety of his role, the authentic documents, on which alone he may be judged. » (Preface)
