Charles Kingsley, in his preface to the recent London edition of the Foon or quality, says of its anther: He had an intense capacity for worship. All his life he delighted to look up to beings better than himself, and through them to God, as the sum and substance of all their goodness, and not in spite ofthat, but because ofthat, he was, inthevery bestsense oftheword, aliberal. Against all My, cruelty and wrong, minst the chicaneries of the law and the chivaneries of politicians, his voice was always load and earnest. Never man lived a more original, self-determined, independent life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fool of Quality, Vol. 1: Or the History of Henry, Earl of Moreland So says the biographer of 1787, in the ambitious style of those days; but doubtless with perfect truth. Yet neither he, nor any other biographer with whom I am acquainted, give any details of the real character, the inner life, of the man. One longs, but longs almost in vain, for any scrap of diary, private meditation, even familiar letter, from one who had seen, read, and above all suffered, so much and so variously. But with.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fool of Quality, Vol. 2 of 2: Or the History of Henry, Earl of Moreland When I look back, my fair cousin, on the passages of my life, it is a matter of amazement to me, that a creature so frail, so feebly and so delicately constituted as man, with nerves so apt to be racked, and a heart to be wrung with anguish, can possibly endure under the weights of calamity that at times are laid upon him.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fool of Quality Any further introduction to an author whom Charles Kingsley ushered in with so eulogistic a preface would be a work of supererogation, had not the opportunity arisen of making some additions to the little that is generally known about Henry Brooke. Kingsley's preface has been retained in the present edition of The Fool of Quality, for it is now identified with the book in a way that few prefaces are - at all events, such as are written to introduce other men's work. It contains the finest portrait we have of the character of Brooke, a portrait that has the charm of eloquence and enthusiasm, and displays the insight born of complete and fervent sympathy. Kingsley had the good luck to find, in a writer who had preceded him by nearly a century, a man singularly like himself in temperament, in imagination, in social, ethical, and religious ideas. No proper biography of Henry Brooke existing - for Kingsley's account is, after all, only a sketch - there is no excuse needed for trying to fill in the outlines with a few fresh details. For much of the material to be used for this purpose I am indebted to Mr. Henry Brooke of Liverpool, a descendant of Robert, the younger brother of the Counsellor Brooke, as he was familiarly known in his own day, author of The Fool of Quality. Mr. Brooke has kindly supplied the appended family tree, which he has taken considerable pains to verify, and has lent for reproduction the life-like monochrome portrait which is included here. He has also put at my disposal, for the purposes of this introduction, his interesting collection of Brooke papers and letters. I am further much indebted for a number of references and other notes to Mr. Ernest Palser, who has made a special study of the life and works of the author. Several of the references to the contemporary press are due to the researches of Mr. J. K. Dowling. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Fool and His Money Classic Reprint written by George Barr McCutcheon and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Fool and His Money" is the satirical story of a wealthy American who purchases a large property in Germany. Upon moving into this ancient feudal building, the man discovers a beautiful and enigmatic woman to be living in one of the property's wings. At first wary, the man comes to fall in love with the woman, and a relationship begins. The story is both a romance and a tale of grand adventure, and contains both comedic and dramatic elements. McCutcheon's novel is a pleasant read that is not without its challenges. While written in the twentieth century, the language seems born of an older time period, and can be confounding for the reader unaccustomed to the grammar and colloquialisms of the day. While the plot generally moves along steadily, there are periods where the pace of the novel slows quite dramatically. The satirical nature of the work ultimately makes it an enjoyable read, and McCutcheon's quick wit will keep readers on their toes. Author George Barr McCutcheon was a popular novelist of the early twentieth century. He is most well known for a series of novels based in the fictional country of Graustark, but readers can now enjoy a slightly lesser known work of fiction from this well known American author. "A Fool and His Money" is a romantic comedy of the early twentieth century and will appeal to readers that thirst for satire. McCutcheon has crafted a clever novel of clever characters, and the clever reader will certainly be entertained.
