Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Bundle of Memories This little book may Win forgiveness if its preventive and prohibitive purpose be fully recognized. It makes it finally impossible for me to write a volume of Reminiscences. It is wise to guard against this in time. For the period of anecdotage is fast drawing in upon me. And at any moment of weakness I might yield to a publisher's bribe, and the worst would have happened. It is the last dotty years that do all the mischief. Old age affords a fatal leisure and, then, the devil gets busy with one's idle hands. So, now, I have taken steps to forestall a lapse. I have scrapped the materials that might have been of service. The Public is saved. And it may, therefore, be the better inclined to tolerate kindly this casual gleaning out of the memories that lie behind me.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of the Months How often one may hear people who enjoy command of their own time complain of the dulness of life in the country. Poets, children, lovers, and a few other abnormal individuals, derive constant solace from the seasons; but modern life in England has been arranged with studied indifference to them. Man - slowest among vertebrate animals to attain maturity, yet whose years are but a span compared with those of the oak or lowly lichen - man, leaden-footed among beasts, Wingless among fowls - a poor climber - a bad swimmer - has shown his discontent with Nature by devising a scheme of civilisation to make him independent of her infinite changefulness. Artificial illuminants have rendered him indifferent to the radiance of rising and setting suns; neither storm nor shine are allowed to interrupt the monotony of counting-house, factory, or mine; while, strangest of all, fashion has decreed that the fairest half of the year can only be spent in an overgrown, smoky town, built chiefly on swampy ground, lying along a muddy estuary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of by-Gone Days When my husband asked me to write the foreword to this little book I was glad, for no one except the author can feel so great an interest in this as I do. His articles and pictures for the outdoor magazines have been a pleasure to both of us, and it has long been my desire to see them gathered into a volume in permanent form. In Memories of Bygone Days there is no morbid tendency to disparage present joys, but simply a wholesome retrospect. Lulled in the countless chambers of the brain Our thoughts are linked by many a hidden chain. We may make of memory a blessing or a curse, just as we will. It is a stupendous thought that we are augmenting or decreasing future pleasure by the way we spend today. The only use we have for our past is to get a future out of it. All the pleasures of today One by one soon glide away To the golden shore of sweet long ago. Happy is that man whose memories are pleasant and profitable company. Alice kimball steele.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of the Months: Second Series IT is probably a mere philological accident, devoid of moral significance, that, in the whole of the English version of the Old and New Testaments, there is not a single instance of the use of the substantives enjoy ment' and 'happiness.' Frequent mention of 'joy' and 'pleasure, ' but the first seems to verge too closely upon the boisterous, or at least the exuberant, and the other to have become tainted too grossly in human handling to express precisely the sensation stirred by weather fair or foul, by noble landscape, by the every day operations of nature, and by communion, oral or literary, with higher intellects than our own. One derives pleasure from, and feels joy in, all such things, but they inspire something incapable of interpretation by either of these terms; something which the French denote by bonhewr, and we, in defiance of obvious etymology, by 'happiness.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fragrant Memories Through the shadowy past, Like a tomb-searcher, memory ran, Lifting each shroud that time had cast. Campbell. Over these scenes my memory wakes, And fondly broods with miser care; Time the impression deeper makes As streams their channels deeper wear. Burns. And thus, as in memory's bark we shall glide To visit the scenes of our boyhood anew, Though oft we may see, looking down on the tide, The wreck of full many a hope shining through: Yet still, as in fancy we point to the flowers, That once made a garden of all the gay shore, Deceiv'd for the moment, we will still think them ours And breathe the fresh air of life's morning once more Anon.

The elder of the two, a tall, neat, gray whiskered man of Sixty or more, stood on the footpath, with his back to the cottages, and poked at the dust with a slim gold-headed cane. His companion, much younger than himself, had halted in the roadway, and was speaking rather defiantly, with his hands in his pockets.

Remember not to fire until I give the word of command, that you may not waste your powder. My grandfather said his knees trembled so much that he could scarcely stand. He stole a hasty glance about him to observe the appearance of his fellow soldiers. Every man was white as a ghost. General Putnam reverently lifted his sword and implored help from the God of battles. Then came the word of command, Fire! And the memorable battle was begun.
