Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bar Harbor Days What is yon relic? Ah, well may you ask it! Amid the medley on my mantel-shelf, A gray-green sheaf thrust in an Indian basket, Watched by a pair of dragons in old Delft - That one poor handful of Mount Desert grasses - Enshrines a charm all other charms surpasses! Just as, within some queer-shaped Turkish vial, Attar of roses hoards its essence rare, And, when one idly gives the scent a trial, Blest Araby escapes upon the air - So, these frail tokens of a season vanished Call back, to live again, dear scenes long banished! Last night - when sleet was dashing on my casement, And through forsaken streets the wild winds raved, As if to mock the once pure snows abasement - Within my lamp-lit room there rose, and braved With sweet appeal old winters frosty greeting, A balm that witched me with its soft entreating. Lack came the visions I would fain remember. Waking, I dreamed myself where I would be. Gone was the scowling presence of December. Midsummer reigned at Eden in the Sea! And from the earth, at eventide, arising, Odors exhaled, my grateful sense surprising. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bar Harbor As the little steamer draws up to her moorings the groups of people waiting on the pier stand out distinctly, and the usual types detach themselves one by one. The clusters of hotel-runners and express men are lounging listlessly until they shall be roused to clamorous activity by the landing of the first passenger; in knotsand those serenely idle ofall ages, who, all places and seasons, seem to find an ever-new amusement in watch ing the arrival of trains or boats, are as deeply interested as usual; the inevitable big and solemn dog, of nondescript breed and eclectic affections, is stalking about with an air of responsibility.

This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A whimsical, moving novel about a retirement home for literary legends who spar, conjure up new stories, and almost magically change the lives of the people around them. Alfonse Carducci was a literary giant who lived his life to excess—lovers, alcohol, parties, and literary rivalries. But now he's come to the Bar Harbor Home for the Elderly to spend the remainder of his days among kindred spirits: the publishing industry's nearly gone but never forgotten greats. Only now, at the end of his life, does he comprehend the price of appeasing every desire, and the consequences of forsaking love to pursue greatness. For Alfonse has an unshakeable case of writer's block that distresses him much more than his precarious health. Set on the water in one of New England's most beautiful locales, the Bar Harbor Home was established specifically for elderly writers needing a place to live out their golden years—or final days—in understated luxury and surrounded by congenial literary company. A faithful staff of nurses and orderlies surround the writers, and are drawn into their orbit, as they are forced to reckon with their own life stories. Among them are Cecibel Bringer, a young woman who knows first-hand the cost of chasing excess. A terrible accident destroyed her face and her sister in a split-second decision that Cecibel can never forgive, though she has tried to forget. Living quietly as an orderly, refusing to risk again the cost of love, Cecibel never anticipated the impact of meeting her favorite writer, Alfonse Carducci—or the effect he would have on her existence. In Cecibel, Alfonse finds a muse who returns him to the passion he thought he lost. As the words flow from him, weaving a tale taken up by the other residents of the Pen, Cecibel is reawakened to the idea of love and forgiveness. As the edges between story and reality blur, a world within a world is created. It’s a place where the old are made young, the damaged are made whole, and anything is possible….

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Belhaven Tales Crow's Nest Una and King David Odd enough in the neighborhood of Mount Vernon - nay, under the very shadow, as it were, of the great dome of the National Capitol! At the time referred to, enjoyment for the greater part of a century of the blessings of political enfranchisement had not deprived some Alexandrians of a certain relish for the affairs of the English Court. They liked to read the "Illustrated London News," and to obtain correct information about the Queen's walks with the youthful Royalties, and the Queen's drives attended by Ladies X, Y, and Z. Had they not been fed upon the traditions of an English ancestry, as upon the toothsome hams, the appetizing roe-herrings, of their famous market-place? The Georgian era of tea-drinking and tambour, of spangles and snuffboxes, of high play and hair-powder, represented to them the Golden Age in the fortunes of their families, of which every vestige must be guarded jealously. As children they had stood on tiptoe to study the lineaments of great-grandaunt Betty, hanging in her fly-specked frame somewhere near the ceiling, and had been eager to hear how she had been toasted at Mayfair supper-tables or had danced the gavotte at a Ranelagh ball. Yonder beetle-browed warrior in a voluminous wig was a general in Queen Anne's time, before he condescended to his present station above the sideboard. The beautiful youth in armor, slender and graceful, with the fiery eyes, fought for King Charles against the Roundheads, never dreaming that he would come across the seas to find his niche in a staid Virginian sitting-room!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elsie's Young Folks in Peace and War It was a lovely summer day bright and clear, but the heat so tempered - there on the coast of Maine - by the delicious sea breeze that it was delightful and exhilarating. The owner and passengers of the Dolphin had forsaken her more than a fortnight ago, and since spent their days and nights at a lovely villa on shore there in Bar Harbor; but now no longer able to resist the attractions of the beautiful sea, the most of them had come aboard, and were sitting, standing, or roaming about the deck. "Oh, I'm so glad to be in our own dear sea home again " cried Elsie Raymond. "Aren't you, Ned?" "Yes; though we have been having a splendid time on shore in Bar Harbor."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lenox That artless lady who has been known to the world for such a long time because of her famous wonder as to how it happened that large rivers always ran past large towns, and who commented favorably upon such an advantageous arrangement of things, might have wondered as to the "why" of Lenox. She might have wondered, perhaps, but it would almost seem that, in this case, in spite of her engaging intellectual misadjustments, she must have put the horse before the cart, and announced that Lenox "was" for the simple reason that nature had fitted it so to be. Granted literally the "premises," the hills and the lakes, and the place that has grown up, is, as it were, an inevitable logical conclusion.
