Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories by American Authors, Vol. 1 Ome, now, there may as well be an end of this Every time I meet your eyes squarely I detect the question just slipping out of them. If you had spoken it, or even boldly looked it if you had shown in your motions the least sign of a fussy or fidgety concern on my account; if this were not the evening of my birthday, and you the only friend who remembered it if confession were not good for the soul, though harder than sin to some people, of whom I am one, - well, if all reasons were not at this instant converged into a focus, and burning me rather violently in that region where the seat of emotion is supposed to lie, I should keep my trouble to myself. Yes, I have fifty times had it on my mind to tell you the whole story. But who can be certain that his best friend will not smile - or, what is worse.

Download or read book Stories of the American Revolution Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Everett T. Tomlinson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of the American Revolution, Vol. 1 The foundation of these stories is historically true. The incidents of home-life, of the struggles of the women and children who were left to defend themselves as best they could, of the privations, bravery, and heroism of those who never went upon a battlefield, have been too much neglected. The men who shouldered their muskets, and at the peril of their lives went forth to meet the foe, are not likely to be forgotten but the no less heroic deeds of those who were left behind are Ofttimes slighted. We have studied the battlefields sometimes to the exclusion of the lives of the men and the women. The author in putting forth these stories con fesses to one grave fear. He would not in any way enkindle today a feeling of hatred towards the mother country. There are too many reasons why the relations between the two lands should be, and should continue to be, friendly, for him in any way to try to keep alive the feelings which prevailed during the Revolution. The times have changed, and it is to be hoped that we may change with them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book American Book Prices Current Vol 1 written by Luther S. Livingston and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-03 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Book-Prices Current, Vol. 1: A Record of Books, Manuscripts and Autographs Sold at Auction in New York, Boston and Philadelphia, From September 1st, 1894, to September 1st, 1895, With the Prices Realized Should this volume meet with the necessary financial support from the trade and book-buyers generally, the compilation will be published annually, and it is hoped that this, our first effort, will be much improved upon in future issues. Although the number of sales and aggregate value of books sold at auction in the United States fall below those of England, nevertheless the past year has seen dispersed several collee tions which, in the character of the volumes offered and in the sums realized, will compare favorably with any recent London sales. Some absolutely unique books, and others practically so, have been put upon the auction record, while new records have been established upon some of the world's great classics for which the competition is keenest. The books most in favor with collectors in this country, much as in England, are early English literature, first editions of English and American authors, and the rarer Americana. For a few of the rarest and most esteemed volumes in each of these classes there seems to be no limit in price to which they may not attain. Prices which even five years ago would have been called exorbitant, are today considered moderate. The demand exceeds the supply, and at each sale some buyer is prepared to pay, for a fine copy, a little more than the book has ever brought at any previous sale. This can be said of the rarest books only, for commoner books, and especially inferior 00pies, have not sho'wn any marked increase in price.
