Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jessie of Boulogne, Vol. 3 of 3: Or the History of a Few Minutes Accordingly there was a great deal of explanation, on which both of them had to enter, before they could feel quite satisfied with the new aspect of things. George spoke gaily and rather satirically of Boulogne. To think, exclaimed George, that my sister Maude should come to be called Jessie of Boulogne; whereas she has nothing to do with that bad steel pen-making place.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jessie of Boulogne, Vol. 1 of 3: Or the History of a Few Minutes "For a day is coming to quell the tone That rings in thy laughter, thou joyous one; And to dim thy brow with a touch of care, Under the gloss of its clustering hair." Mrs. Hemans. An ordinary observer would perhaps have said, that Cyril Grosvenor had lived more than his twenty-three summers; because the outside world came in contact with more thoughtfulness in him, than is usually to be found in young men of that ago. Still, there was much liveliness and even joyousness in his character. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jessie of Boulogne, Vol. 2 of 3: Or the History of a Few Minutes "Ah me! for aught that ever I could read, Could ever hear by tale or history, The course of true love never did run smooth; But, either it was different in blood, Or else misgraffed, in respect of years: Or else it stood upon the choice of friends: Or, if there were a sympathy in choice, War, death, or sickness did lay siege to it: Making it momentary as a sound. Swift as a shadow, short as any dream, Brief as the lightning in the collied night, That, in a spleen, unfolds both heaven and earth, And ere a man hath power to say, Behold! The jaws of darkness do devour it up: So quick bright things come to confusion." Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream." How curious and unfortunate, it seemed to Cyril, that here were two houses, in both of which Jessie had been; and yet in neither of them could he learn anything whatsoever concerning her.

Download or read book Dancing with the Devil written by Christopher Wilson and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2014-06-17 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor is one of the most romantic of all time: Edward VIII abdicated his throne and gave up an empire so that he could marry the woman he loved, American divorcee Wallis Simpson. Very few people suspected, and even fewer actually knew, that the Duchess cuckolded him—and almost gave him up—for a gay playboy twenty years her junior. Blond and slender, Jimmy Donahue was the archetypal post-war playboy. He could fly a plane, speak several languages, play the piano, and tell marvelous jokes. People loved him for his wit, charm and personality. The grandson of millionaire Frank W. Woolworth, Jimmy knew he would never need to work. Instead, he set about carving for himself a career of mischief. Some said evil. Gay at a time when the homosexual act was still illegal, Jimmy was notorious within America's upper class, and loved to shock. Though press agents arranged for him to be seen with female escorts, his pursuits, until he met the Duchess of Windsor, were exclusively homosexual. He was thirty-five when he was befriended by the Duke and Duchess of Windsor in 1950. The Duchess was fifty-four, and despite the difference in age, there was an instant attraction. A burgeoning sexual relationship – a perverse sort of love – was formed between Jimmy and the Duchess. Together with the Duke, they became an inseparable trio, the closest of friends. As Jimmy had planned, the royal couple became obsessed with him. With information from surviving contemporaries, Dancing with the Devil by Christopher Wilson is the extraordinary tale of three remarkable people and their unique and twisted relationship.

Book excerpt: The book describes the careers and the music of four generations of Irish musicians in 19th and early 20th-century France. It is a fascinating story of hopes and disappointments, successes and failures, musical talent and tastes, as this family integrated more and more into French society. Joseph Kelly (1804-1854), a Dublin-born piano teacher, emigrated to Boulogne-sur-Mer, where his five sons were born, three of whom became musicians. They lived in Paris since c.1835 but close links to Boulogne remained. Joseph O'Kelly (1828-1885) became the best-known member of the family. He is the author of nine operas, four cantatas and numerous songs and piano pieces, with some excellent music to be rediscovered. Auguste O'Kelly (1829-1900) was a music publisher in Paris between 1872 and 1888. George O'Kelly (1831-1914) was a pianist, composer and teacher in Boulogne and Paris. Henri O'Kelly sr. (1859-1938) was a pianist, organist, conductor and composer in Paris for many years. Gustave O'Kelly (1872-1937) was a piano maker in Paris between 1898 and 1917. Henri O'Kelly jr. (1881-1922) was a double bass player and composer in Paris. The book collects documentary evidence about all members of the family with numerous music examples and other illustrations. It is not only a study of the prototype minor composer in one of Europe's musical capitals, but also discusses issues of identity, change, aesthetics and Irishness in exile. It is a contribution to both French and Irish musical history.

Aaron is a Consultant Surgeon and Jessie having worked very hard to achieve the necessary qualifications to go to Medical School to train to be a Doctor, a promise she made as a little girl to God and herself. She is prevented from being offered a place a University by the number of men being discharged from the War She is clever, feisty and fiery with a good sense of humour which sometimes gets her into trouble, but she is vulnerable with even the most innocent contact with men other than her family. Aaron is twelve years her senior, arrogant, self opinionated and sometimes downright rude. The chemistry between them is almost tangible. Aarons history catches up with him involving Jessie in fear, terror and injury.
