Download or read book Summer in Skye Classic Reprint written by Alexander Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Summer in Skye Moreover, one is tired and jaded. The whole man, body and soul, like sweet bells jangled, out of tune, and harsh, is fagged with work, eaten up of impatience, and haunted with visions of vacation. One babbles 0' green fields, like a very Fal staff; and the poor tired ears hum with sea-music like a couple of sea-shells. At last it comes, the Ist of August, and then - like an arrow from a Tartar's bow, like a bird from its cage, like a lover to his mistress - one is off; and before the wild scar lets of sunset die on the northern sea, one is in the silence of the hills, those eternal sun-dials that tell the hours to the shepherd, and in one's nostrils is the smell Of peat-reek, and in one's throat the flavour of usquebaugh. Then come long floating summer days, so silent the wilderness, that one can hear one's heart beat; then come long silent nights, the waves heard upon the shore, although Mal is a mile away, in which one snatches the fearful joy of a ghost story, told by shepherd or fisher, who believes in it as in his own existence. Then one beholds sunset, not through the smoked glass of towns, but gloriously through the clearness of em kindled air. Then one makes acquaintance with sunrise, which to the dweller in a city, who con forms to the usual proprieties, is about the rarest of this world's sights.

Download or read book The Northern Tourist Vol 2 written by J. Bonsall and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Northern Tourist, Vol. 2: An Illustrated Book of Summer Travel The writer in his many journeyings over the routes described in the "Northern Tourist," has felt the need of some work that should properly call public attention to the many attractive places to the Northward that might be visited by the tourist whose time was limited to two or three weeks, and accomplished at a comparatively small expense. Merely giving the routes of travel by which the places noticed and illustrated are reached, everything else of the guide-book character has been omitted, as small railroad guides will always be used for that purpose. It is believed that its copious illustration and chatty, easy description of the places enumerated will give the "Tourist" a permanent place with the travelling public. In the preparation of the work we have had the kind aid of several editorial gentlemen, as well as many others to whom we desire to return our acknowledgements. Miss H. M. Ameden of Queensbury, Warren County, New York, contributed the poem in reference to Hermit's Island, which we are sure will be well appreciated. "The Round Trip to the Adirondacks" was furnished by Dr. George F. Bixbv, the accomplished editor of the Plaitsburg Republican, a member of the "Tahawas Club," who is perhaps more conversant with the region than any other person, and whose facile pen vividly presents it to our readers. We are also indebted to him for the admirable account of his visit to, Howe's Cave in an editorial letter written to his paper in 1876. C. P. McCalla, Esq., the editor of the Keystone, Philadelphia, furnished us with the White Face Mountain letter, in which trip we had the pleasure of being one of the party. Mr. McCalla, both by his pen and company, would insure pleasure to his reader or his comrades du voyage. O. G. Staples, Esq., of the Thousand Island House, furnished the illustrations and permission to use the article in reference to the same as it appeared in "Scribners" last year. We have copied Charles Dudley Warner's lively and graphic account of "Camping in the Adirondacks." "Camping on the Saranacs" is from Alfred B. Street's "Woods and Waters," which we think any of our readers who have not read should get it and do so. We have also copied the admirable account of Clinton Prison written by Albert D. Webster, and published in Appleton's Journal about five years since. Many kind friends have aided in illustrating the work, to whom we desire to return our thanks, especially so to all the railroad companies embraced in our routes, as without their aid our work would have been laborious indeed. The illustrations which may not be in regular place in the letter-press were received late, and not desiring to lose the use of them were inserted in the best place possible.

What a welcome dawn to usher in such a charming day; the troubled sea sparkles and glitters in the summer's sun, not in an ex panse of tranquil water without a ripple, but in glorious waves, rolling, and rearing, and chasing each other, and dashing their silvery crests afar, making the passing barques reel and plunge, like maddened war-steeds champing and foaming.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summer in Skye, Vol. 1 of 2 Mr De Quincey maintains, in one of his essays, that dinner - dinner about seven in the evening, for which one dresses, which creeps on with multitudinous courses and efzz'rées, which, so far from being a gross satisfaction of appetite, is a feast noble, graceful, adorned with the pre sence and smile of beauty, and which, from the very stateliness of its progress, gives op portunities for conversation and the encounter of polished minds - saves over-wrought London from insanity. This is no mere humorous exag geration, but a very truth; and what dinner is to the day the Highlands are to the year. Away in the north, amid its green or stony silences, jaded hand and brain find repose - repose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Way of the Strong IT was a grim, gray day; a day which plainly told Of the passing of late fall across the border line of the fierce northern winter. Six inches of snow had fallen during the night, and the leaden overcast Of the sky threatened many more inches yet to fall. Five great sled dogs crouched in their harness, with quarters tucked under them and forelegs outspread. They were waiting the long familiar command to mush; an order they had not heard since the previous winter. Their brief summer leisure had passed, lost beneath the White pall which told of weary toil awaiting them in the immediate future. Unlike the humans with whom they were associated, however, the coming winter held no terrors for them. It was the normal condition under which the sled dog performed its life's work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summer Cruise: On the Coast of New England The fishing voyage of which this book is a record was made in 1858, during my summer vacation from the arduous duties of a Washing ton Correspondent of the'new York Tribune, and the narrative originally appeared in the form of letters to that journal. In that shape it met with considerable favor, especially from sportsmen and naturalists; and its publication in a permanent form, at this late day, is due, in part, to the assurances I have received from high scientific authority that its sketches of the fishes of our Northern seas, of their habits and resorts, and of the methods of taking them, are not without value as contributions to Natural History. I can only say upon this point, that I have spared no pains to make my statements accurate, not only by careful personal observa tions, but by freely consulting and using the writings of our best American ichthyologists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summer in Scandinavia This beautiful picture is not the all of Hamburg. There is another side which is, indeed, a contrast; and a walk from the modem to the old town is to step across ages. If there was a luxuriant past, there are no records to be found at the present. Probably no city of Europe, with much less wealth and importance even, has so poor a display of art in any of its departments of architecture, painting, or sculpture; in fact, save one beautiful monument in bronze commemorative of the F ranco-prussian war, there was nothing that repaid a visit.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trouting on the Brule River, or Lawyers Summer-Wayfaring in the Northern Wilderness It needs little experience on the stream to real ize that this sympathy and converse with nature in her myriad forms of air, sky, woods, water, and the teeming life of bird and brute and fish, are a great part of the boundless delight of the angler's silent trade. These mysterious influences and attractions of nature impart to the use of the rod a refinement and fascination which elevate it above the rank of a merely gross, illiberal, and vulgar sport. This is verified in the instances of many noted persons who, while swaying masterly seep tres over the minds of men, have yet also lovingly plied angling-rods in the secluded and quiet streams.

Dr. Wm. A. Hammond has written of its merits, and Lieut. Greeley, the Arctic hero, in an article published in Scribner's Magazine, entitled Where Shall We Spend the Summer? Names Mackinac as pre-eminent in possessing the cool, dry, bracing air necessary to health. Across the Straits and about five miles northwest of Mackinac Island is st. Ignace. It is a very old town, having been first settled in 1671. It is the terminus of a division of the Duluth, South Shore Atlantic Railroad, by means of which all points may be reached in the Upper Peninsula.
