Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heir Presumptive, Vol. 1 of 3: And the Heir Apparent The conditions of literary work, especially in fiction, have so much altered since the time when a book came solidly before the world in one issue, that I think it right to say a word in explanation of the rapidity with which one work of mine has recently, within a few months, followed another. The fact is, that a writer of fiction is now so much drawn into the easy way of serial publication that he, or she, not unfrequently loses command of the times and seasons once so carefully studied.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heir Presumptive and the Heir Apparent, Vol. 1 of 2 Lord Frogmore was not, however, so entirely actuated by consideration for his brother as his stepmother thought. He was a man who took, and had taken all his life, very great care of himself. Whatever was his reason for not marrying, it was not on account of his brother John. No doubt he was aware that in all probability his brother would be his heir: but he did not dwell on that thought, or indeed contemplate the necessity of an heir at all. He took great care of his health, which was perfect, and had a system of life which secured him the utmost possible comfort and pleasure with the least possible trouble. A man who has no family to interfere with his liberty. Plenty of money, perfect control of his own time and actions, and no duties to speak of, can make himself exceedingly comfortable when he sets his mind to it, and this was what Lord Frogmore had done.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Inheritance, Vol. 1 of 3 France, where Mr. St. Clair's mind soon settled into that state which acquires its name from the character of its possessor, and, according to that, is called forti tude, resignation, contentment, or stupidity. There, too, they soon sunk into that oblivion which is some times the portion of the living as well as the dead. His father's death, which happened some years after, made no alteration in his circumstances. The patri mony to which he expected to succeed was settled on his children, should he have any, and a slender life annuity was his only portion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alcazar; Or the Dark Ages, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel The events recorded in the following pages happened seven hundred years ago; and I assure the reader that neither I nor any of my family now living took any part in them. I should have deemed it superfluous to make such a declaration had it not been insisted that I myself and the several members of my household, together with real events that had happened to each of us, had been introduced by me into my recent work entitled Modern Society in Rome. Because, in The Wabash, I had recorded what happened to us in our wild travels in the Back Woods of America, it was thought that we must play a part in every novel or chronicle that I might publish! And as I do not make my novels a vehicle for personal histories, so I would request non-readers to believe that I do not use them as channels for controversial or religious disquisitions.
