Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Grape From a Thorn IT has come to the knowledge of the author of A Grape from a Thorn that some pain has been given to the friends of the late Count d'albam'e from the impression they have been under that he was the original of a certain personage pourtrayed in the novel. This is altogether a misconception the author did not know the Count even by sight, nor, so far as he is aware, had that gentleman any feature of character in common with the Mr. Edwards of the story. Moreover, lest the very misapprehension should arise which has taken place, and which he sincerely deplores, the author was careful to point out (page 210) that others besides the Count have claimed to be the last of the Stuarts, and that Mr. Edwards was one of them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Grapes of Wrath: A Tale of North and South Cornelia Manners felt both the sweetness and hard ness of nature as she lingered in her dooryard, waiting for the morning mail. She was praying, although her blue eyes, shining and tense, were staring down the street. Her hopes, her fears, her love, were embodied in a petition individual, particular, supreme; for her husband was in the army of the Potomac, and her son at Bermuda Hundred with General Butler. The mail was due at eight, and it was already nine o'clock. Mrs. Manners stepped out on the sidewalk, shading her eyes with her long, delicate hand. The trees met overhead as far as a distant bend in the street; and the half-grown, translucent leaves cast a greenish-golden, shadowy brilliance between the arch above and the red dish loam underneath. A boy whom she had sent for the mail came running with a telegram. She watched him approach with a sigh of apprehension, and, when he handed her the yellow envelope, turned aside with the ever-present fear of a terrible catastrophe. A hot, choking sensation made her try to ease the narrow col lar pressing against her throat. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grapes of Wrath The readers of Boyd Cable's "Between the Lines," "Action Front," and "Doing Their Bit," have very naturally had their curiosity excited as to an author who, previously unheard of, has suddenly become the foremost word-painter of active fighting at the present day, and the greatest "literary discovery" of the War. Boyd Cable is primarily a man of action; and for half of his not very long life he has been doing things instead of writing them. At the age of twenty he joined a corps of Scouts in the Boer War, and saw plenty of fighting in South Africa. After the close of that war, his life consisted largely of traveling in Great Britain and the principal countries of Europe and the Mediterranean, his choice always leading him from the beaten track.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Thorn in the Nest Our story opens in spring of 1797, in a sequestered valley in Western Pennsylvania. On a green hillside dotted here and there with stately oaks and elms, and 510ping toward the road, beyond which flowed the clear waters of a mountain stream, stood a brick farm-house large, roomy, substantial beautiful with climbing vines and flowering shrubs. Orchard, meadow, wheat and 'corn fields stretched away on either hand, shut in by dense forests and wooded hills; beyond and above which, toward the right, towered the giant Alleghenies; their summits, still white from the storms of the past winter, lying like a bank of snowy clouds against the eastern horizon. But night drew on apace, the light was fast fading even from the mountain tops, and down in the valley it was already so dark that only the outlines of objects close at hand were discernible as our hero, Kenneth Clendenin, mounted upon Romeo, his gallant steed, entered it from the west and slowly wended his way toward its one solitary dwelling. The road was familiar to both man and horse, and ere long they had reached the gate. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Apple Seed and Brier Thorn The sun had gone down, yet a great bank of red and golden Splendor lighted the west, and just above all this glory, resting on the edge of it, but against the green-blue sky, was a great white harp. Here and there its edges were lightly touched with gold, and it seemed to be waiting for the Angel to come and strike it. And at that moment, all excited and bent on one object as I was, I thought how fine it was to have the world called by a harp instead of a trumpet. Even a converted person would be frightened by such a peal as Gabriel would give; but a harp would be so much more tender and less terrify ing. Still, I did not ive much attention to the sky, because I was so busy looking up and own the roads watching for the Master himself.
