Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A blurring rain fell upon Paris that day; a rain so fine and cold that it penetrated the soles of men's shoes and their hearts alike, a dispiriting drizzle through which the pale, acrid smoke of innumerable wood fires faltered upward from the clustering chimney-pots, only to be rent into fragments and beaten down upon the glistening tiles of the mansard roofs. The wide asphalts reflected the horses and carriages and trains and pedestrians in forms grotesque, zigzagging, flitting, amusing, like a shadow-play upon a wrinkled, wind-blown curtain. The sixteenth of June. To Fitzgerald there was something electric in the date, a tingle of that ecstasy which frequently comes into the blood of a man to whom the romance of a great battle is more than its history or its effect upon the destinies of human beings. Many years before, this date had marked the end to a certain hundred days, the eclipse of a sun more dazzling than Rome, in the heyday of her august Caesars, had ever known: Waterloo.

Download or read book Splendid Hazard written by Harold MacGrath and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-08-09 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A foremost authority on pirates, a megalomaniac descendent of Napoleon, a secret agent, an opera singer, an unspoiled rich American beauty and others gather at a mansion for what was thought to be a pleasure cruise, but is a search for buried treasure. This adventure is told mainly through the eyes of an adventurous journalist, but the deepest motives of many of these people are traversed as events rush towards the conclusion. Who will panic, who will hide, who will step forward, who will protect whom. The mystery of the treasure ends up being secondary to how each person reacts to the pressure and temptations of which they are thrust. So the real climax, as in most MacGrath stories is in how true character and indeed heroism show in people, both high-born and "common". This is an enjoyable and gripping character study/revelation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About MacGrath: Harold MacGrath (September 4, 1871 - October 30, 1932) was a bestselling American novelist, short story writer, and screenwriter. Also known occasionally as Harold McGrath, he was born in Syracuse, New York. As a young man, he worked as a reporter and columnist on the Syracuse Herald newspaper until the late 1890s when he published his first novel, a romance titled Arms and the Woman. According to the New York Times, his next book, The Puppet Crown, was the No.7 bestselling book in the United States for all of 1901. From that point on, MacGrath never looked back, writing novels for the mass market about love, adventure, mystery, spies, and the like at an average rate of more than one a year. He would have three more of his books that were among the top ten bestselling books of the year. At the same time, he penned a number of short stories for major American magazines such as The Saturday Evening Post, Ladies Home Journal, and Red Book magazine. Several of MacGrath's novels were serialized in these magazines and contributing to them was something he would continue to do until his death in 1932. In 1912, Harold MacGrath became one of the first nationally-known authors to write directly for the movies when he was hired by the American Film Company to do the screenplay for a short film in the Western genre titled The Vengeance That Failed
