He was loud and arro gant at his own table, and exacted a rich man's homage from his vulgar and obsequious guests. AS to Iron John, his old grandfather, he had grown impatient of the tight hand his own grandson kept over him, and quarrelled with him soon after he came to the estate.

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from With the World's Great Travellers, Vol. 2 The reflective voyager, on his first sight of New York, is baffled when he attempts to catalogue his sensations. All is so completely in contrast with the capitals of Europe. The gloriously bright sky, air that drinks like champagne, the resultant springiness of life and movement, that overdoes itself in excitement and premature exhaustion, and the obtrusively visible defects of this surface enthusiasm, monotonous streets, unfinished or unbegun city improvements, and the conspicuous lack of play-spaces for children - this is the rough portrait sketch New York draws of itself for the newcomer. It does not disguise the fact that money-making was for many years the dominant consideration. The city was laid out for business, and public comfort had to look out for itself. The workers, the poor, and the helpless were apparently overlooked. But there are at least three New Yorks to explore. Old New York stretches from the bay up to once aristocratic Madison Square, and this is the section that first leaves its mark on the aforesaid visitor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories Revived, Vol. 2 of 3: In Three Volumes Raymond Benyon's love was happy, in spite of grave presentiments, in spite of the singularity of his mistress and the insufferable rudeness of her parents. She was a tall, fair girl, with a beautiful cold eye, and a smile of which the perfect sweet ness, proceeding from the lips, was full of compen sation; she had auburn hair, of a hue that could be qualified as nothing less than gorgeous, and she seemed to move through life with a stately grace, as she would have walked through an old-fashioned minuet. Gentlemen connected with the navy have the advantage of seeing many types of women; they are able to compare the ladies of New York with those of Valparaiso, and those of Halifax with those of the Cape of Good Hope. Raymond Benyon had had these opportunities, and, being fond of women, he had learned his lesson he was in a position to appreciate Georgina Gressie's fine points. She looked like a duchess - I don't mean that in foreign ports Benyon had associated with duchesses - and she took everything so seriously. That was attering for the young man, who was only a lieutenant, detailed for duty at the Brooklyn navy-yard, without a penny in the world but his pay; with a set of plain, numerous, seafaring, God-fearing relations in New Hampshire, a con siderable appearance of talent, a feverish, disguised ambition, and a slight impediment in his speech. He was a spare, tough young man; his dark hair was straight and fine, and his face, a tri e pale, smooth and carefully drawn. He stammered a little, blushing when he did so, at long intervals. I scarcely know how he appeared on shipboard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Hundred and Nine Days, or the Journal of a Traveller on the Continent, Vol. 2 of 2 A person is apt to imagine, that when he enters Rome for the first time, he is to have his head full of Romulus and Remus, of J ulius Cazesar and the Grac chi; this perhaps would be the case, if mankind would let one another alone; but as they have never done so, and I fear never will, it is not easy to think much of the Gracchi, of their mother Cornelia, or of any thing else. At the gate began the inquiries about passports; we were next taken to the custom-house, where we were detained a long time, and every thing was pulled about with much rudeness and incivility; my books were taken away, and I was told to come for them the next morning. I found all the hotels full, but I suc ceeded at last in obtaining apartments in the Piazza di Spagua. It was now dark, and I might as well have been in London, except that I should be more com fortable there; however, at last, I am in Rome.

Hockle's face, which generally wore a smiling respectful expression was now con tracted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Traits of Travel, or Tales of Men and Cities, Vol. 2 of 2 The day that I and my companion rode over to see him was a fine one in J une, and as we walked cur horses into the town, we heard a considerable clamour towards the market-place. We trotted in that direction, and the first thing that struck us was the fine figure of Phil, in a crowd of town's-people which sur rounded a squad of four or five Cossacks, who had rode into the market, got drunk in a cabaret, and were quarrelling together and belabourin'g each other unmercifully, with the short thick whips attached to their bridles. These savages did not lay-on each other more ferociously than did some cowardly scoundrels of the town lay on them, when two or three of them were tumbled from their ponies and lay sprawling on the ground. All the enmity of the vanquished broke out, and the Cossacks would have been roughly handled indeed, had not a gallant ally been ready, in the person of the English captain. Who instantly inter fer-cd, wielding his good arm powerfully, and making most un ceremonious applications with the toe of his boot to the rear ward demonstrations of the flying enemy, some dozens of whom ran before him in electrical dismay.
