Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sixty Years of Recollections, Vol. 1 of 2 One day Ste-Beuve said to me, 'I never speak of a writer until I have found the central point of his work, the dominant trait of his character; that is why I have not taken you up before as the subject of an essay. My perception of you was not sufficiently clear, but now I may begin; I fancy "I've got hold of you."' 'Well, ' I replied, 'seeing that you have got hold of me, tell me what I am, give me a definition of myself.' 'It Is the simplest thing in the world. That which strikes one most forcibly in you is the "unity" of your life. You have travelled along roads, very different from one another, but the aim pursued was always the same. You belong to the race which considers well before it acts. You traced your plan of existence Vol. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glances Back Through Seventy Years, Vol. 1 of 2: Autobiographical and Other Reminiscences The public will be the best judges whether the author of the following pages was well or ill-advised by partial friends to pen these rambling reminiscences of an active, if not an exciting career, covering well-nigh three reigns. The chapters that form a contribution to the history of Pictorial journalism, and the recollections of Mr. Thackeray and a few other notable men, French as well as English, may possibly have a certain value, mixed up though they be with notices of men and things which the world, in its peremptory way, has made up its mind to forget. Yet readers, on the whole, may find the writer's reminder of such matters not uninteresting, and the volumes generally neither prosy nor dull. This is the utmost the writer pretends to claim for them, and in this spirit he commends the book to his brethren of the press.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peter Pilgrim, Vol. 1 of 2: Or a Rambler's Recollections It is only the'man of J aques's temper whom travel makes sad. He who is of an humour to see things on the dark side, to moralize instead of admiring, will find occasion enough for melancholy. T 0 such a man, every inch of the earth's surface is pregnant with thought, every scene has its record, every countenance its lesson; thought, record, and lesson being, for the most part, of a very sombre and la gubrious character To travel is, in such a case, only to become better acquainted with human folly, to ponder more deeply on the extraordinary perversity of a race, which, with the means of making a paradise of the globe, its glorious dwelling-place, has laboured for sixty centuries to convert it into a house of mourning, and having succeeded, is still toiling with might and main to 'keep it so. It is to force upon the mind those dreary recollections of the past, those dark fore bodings of the future - revealments and per tents of human destiny - which are so painful to the heart, so humiliating to the pride, I may even add, so terrific to the imagination, of him who loves, or would love, his species.
