Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homespun, Vol. 3: A Literary Magazine; March 1928 It is late afternoon of a warm spring day. The exterior of Burton's store is seen at the left; it is an old wooden building with two windows on either side of a central door. Canned goods, etc., may be seen through the windows. A dusty road passes in front of the store, with low bushes bordering it in the background. When the curtain rises, four men are seen on the porch, in various attitudes of contemplation. All are old and gray-haired, but one seems older than the rest. During the scene, he is listened to with respectful attention. All the men are smoking pipes, and one gathers the impression that this meeting is a daily occurrence. The four are silent for a moment, then one speaks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homespun, Vol. 8: March 1933 So Horace went home, his mind filled with a jumble of angels, of fairy music to which he and she glided rhythmically to and fro, exciting admiring glances where they went. Now Horace had never been to a dance, but he had attended a few parties where there had been dancing, simply because his mother had literally forced him to go. He had watched the dancers with contempt then; but thinking it over now, it seemed easy enough. He practiced a little by himself in front of the mirror in the living room and decided that he would have no trouble. Of course, he would not be dancing much anyway. They would go out in the garden and talk. Where was she, anyhow? He'd been here over an hour, and he hadn't talked to her yet. He had thought he'd better dance with some other girl first, to practice up a little for her; but it hadn't gone so well. It seemed that he and the girl just couldn't find out what each other was doing. He guessed he'd better not try to dance any more. If he could only find her, they could go some place and talk. He hadn't seen her for at least twenty minutes, not since he was dancing with that girl. Whew, it was hot in here; he might as well go out and cool off.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homespun, Vol. 5: December 1929 Ince primeval man first cherished awe for the supernatural when he opened his eyes and stared in amazement at the wondrous things placed at his disposal for his own comfort and enjoyment, he at some time or other has formed some Conception of the ruler of the heavens, almighty, all-powerful, around whom the whole earth evolved. Even today, we, with all our knowledge given to us by science, still have a God who presides over the universe with a never-erring hand. Our idea is the result of the experience and discoveries of the ages preceding us. Religion is the most puzzling and the most profound question which has confronted the human mind since time began, and it is the most difficult, perhaps, that the mind has tried to cope with. We can readily see that there is some kind of divine power back of everything, because if there were not some sort of a guiding hand to keep this old world right, things could not progress in such a smooth fashion.

Why not stay and play the game? He asked himself. The real Jimmy Price would not be there until he reasoned, and by that time he would be on his way back home. His thoughts were interrupted by the entrance of Joe. Well, well! He exclaimed, extending his hand. So this is Jimmy Price, Betsy's son. Betsy was my Sister, Jim, and a humdinger at that. She had a whole string of beaux, but finally eloped with Gerald Price, your father. She died when you came, and Gerald died of grief two months later. We lost track of you entirely until I read an announcement in the paper of your connection with that furniture company. Well, we're mighty glad to see you. Just make yourself at home.

Download or read book Mountain Masculinity written by Tex Wood and published by Athabasca University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1906, Nello Vernon-Wood (1882-1978) reinvented himself as Tex Wood, Banff hunting guide and writer of "yarns of the wilderness by a competent outdoorsman." His homespun stories of a vanishing world, in such periodicals as The Sportsman, Hunting and Fishing, and the Canadian Alpine Journal, have much to tell us about the west as envisioned by those who wanted to leave the early 20th century behind - or at least read about others who had done so. In the writings of his persona "Tex," Vernon-Wood created an image of the frontier that blended the West of his guiding experiences with the West as a literary object. Editors Gow and Rak guide the reader with a framing introduction to the work, as well as to each article.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homespun, Vol. 3: May 1928 As nearly as I can remember, the next work of Conrad's I read was that group of short stories in the volume, Youth. The first of these, Youth, is not really a short Story; it is a sketch done in glowing colors. It is an expression of the universal glamor of youth and is considered quite a literary masterpiece, I understand. In this volume, though, I think my favorite was Heart of Dark ness. This is the account of an expedition up the Congo, based on an actual experience in Conrad's life. It is told through thewords of that strange philosopher, Marlow, whom Conrad used in a number of his books as a means of giving the reader a more intimate impression of the things he had to tell. Heart of Darkness has an uncanny mood all its own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
