Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Mr. Moody began his series of meetings at the Tabernacle, The Inter-Ocean undertook to give accurate phonographic reports of his sermons. The undertaking was a success, and from many admiring friends of Mr. Moody, we have been requested to have the sermons reproduced in book form. In response to such requests, this volume is issued. The sermons have been carefully revised and corrected with the reporter’s notes. Omissions made in the daily reports, for want of time or space, have been made good, and some entire sermons reported but crowded out of the paper, will be found in these pages. On the whole, it is believed to be the largest and most correct publication of Mr. Moody’s sermons that has been offered to the public. - The Inter-Ocean. Chicago, Dec. 19th, 1876.

Book excerpt: "[...]sail. The fact is, I'm in want of a place, and I'm willing to engage with you, sir." Frank Allfrey experienced a strange mingling of feelings when he heard this. Of course he felt much gratified by the fact that a man so grave and sensible as Joe Graddy should come and deferentially offer to become his servant at a time when he possessed nothing but the remnant of a month's salary; and when he considered his own youth, he felt amazed that one so old and manly should volunteer to place himself under his orders. The fact is that Frank was not aware that his straightforward earnest manner had commended him very strongly to those with whom he had lately come in contact. He was one of those[...]".

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Bonanza: Illustrated Narrative of Adventure and Discovery in Gold Mining, Silver Mining, Among the Raftsmen, in the Oil Regions, Whaling, Hunting, Fishing and Fighting It was nine o'clock, and the bell of the Riverport Academy had summoned its motley throng of boys and girls from their favorite play-ground, the sandy knoll in front. Mr. Stone, the principal, seated himself at his desk on the high platform and struck his little bell sharply: instantly the girls ceased their smiles, their flirting of gay head-ribbons and glossy curls, and the furtive whispers, which sought to finish the communication interrupted by the school-bell; the boys braced themselves sharply back in their seats, folded their arms, and were silent. "Boys, answer to your names," said the principal, as the lady assistant opened the register, and in clear, distinct tones read oft the surnames of the boy scholars. "Appleton, Ames, Amory, Bearse, Barry, Boyd - Boyd? -" The first five names had been promptly answered by the monosyllable "Here;" but as the principal heard the sixth name repeated, without an answer, he frowned angrily, and made a gesture; the reader understood, and all was silence. "How long has Edward Boyd been absent, Miss Nye?" "This is the third half day, sir," answered the lady. "Is your cousin sick, Amory?" The question was asked of a tall, pale lad, the son of the guardian of the absent scholar, - for Edward Boyd was an orphan, the only son of a sea captain, who had amassed much wealth only to die, leaving his motherless boy to the guardianship of Squire Amory - a grasping and unamiable man. It was well known among the villagers that the dead father's wealth had been unable to secure either comfort or a happy home for his child among his envious relations. "He started for school yesterday morning with Sam Nevins, and hasn't been home since, sir," said Stephen Amory, with a slight sneer. "Father thinks he has gone to see his grandfather at Concord." At that moment came a sharp knock at the outer door: the monitor answered the summons, and soon returned, followed by one of the constables of the town, who spoke a few words to the master in a grave tone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story is set in 1960. Sizwe is a migrant worker. Striking illustrations and blocks of text with speech bubbles take the reader into the life of a gold miner who is showing a new miner how to do his job. The miners live in a hostel in very challenging conditions – they are overcrowded, there are communal showers and the food is awful. The miners travel to the mines each day. A big lift takes them down three–and–a–half kilometres into the earth, where it is hot and uncomfortable. The work involves blasting holes with explosives, clearing rocks away and shovelling rubble into carts. Miners do not see their families often and they are harassed by the police for their 'bed number', which gives them permission to be in the city.
