Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Battle Invisible: And Other Stories Court was dismissed. The jury, after sitting all night and nearly all day, had found the prisoner not guilty. Solomon Stone, once more a free man, walked with an unsteady step and a haggard face from the court room, and with his attorney drove away. The throng of men that had attended the trial from beginning to end, each a self appointed judge, gathered in groups of twos and threes on and about the court-house steps, and discussed the case. Every face was either stern or serious. There were many emphatic gestures in the different clusters. Some spoke in low confidential tones, others argumentatively, while a few voices were loud in anger and replete with threats. These were the friends of Nathan Overton who had died, they claimed, from the effects of a blow dealt him on the head by Solomon Stone. The two men were neighbors, and had quarreled over a blooded colt which both claimed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from House of Torment: A Tale of the Remarkable Adventures of Mr. John Commendone, Gentleman to King Philip II of Spain at the English Court Sir Henry Commendone sat upon an oak box clamped with bands of iron and watched his son completing his morning toilette. "And how like you this life of the Court, John?" he said. The young man smoothed out the feather of his tall cone-shaped hat. "Truly, father," he answered, "in respect of itself it seems a very good life, but in respect that it is far from the fields and home it is naught. But I like it very well. And I think I am likely to rise high. I am now attached to the King Consort, by the Queen's pleasure. His Highness has spoken frequently with me, and I have my commission duly written out as caballerizo." "I never could learn Spanish," the elder man replied, wagging his head.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Years at the Russian Court The English daily papers described the Emperor and his family as having fled in their yacht, at a time when the yacht was deeply embedded in ice outside Kronstadt. I could multiply such stories ad lib., but merely wish to draw attention to the fact that so much that is written regarding Russia and the Imperial family is absolutely untrue, so little is really known about the Court life, that I am emboldened to offer my slight sketches of life in the Palaces. It would be very easy for me to pile on the agony, to represent the Emperor as a much ridden man; to picture plots and counter plots; to speak of hairbreadth escapes from death; of hidden bombs; of life made horrible by fears but no such things have occurred in my six years at the Russian Court, and I am a truthful person, and have not started forth to write fiction, but plain, unvarnished truth.

This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Police Court Friends With the Colours My registers show that in these seventeen years last past I have visited sixteen thousand seven hundred and thirty-eight men and lads in their own homes, having followed them from the Police Court after prosecution for breaches of the law. The offences were mostly trivial, arising out of mischievous rather than criminal tendencies. Among the great bulk of the men it was idleness, drink, or gambling that caused their appearance before the Bench; with the lads, evil home influence, lack of discipline, above all, lack of worthy companions and friends, lay at the root of their misdoings. Thanks to a variety of means of help put into operation for their benefit by numerous persons, most of these were stayed in their evil course at its beginning. A few, a very few, developed into criminals. I have continued to do what 1 could even for these, some of whom are now serving with the colours. But the following sketches have nothing whatsoever to do with them. Another day it may be my privilege to deal with the problem of the confirmed criminal, be he monotonously sentenced to term after term of ordinary imprisonment or condemned to a long period of penal servitude.

Download or read book The Judges of the Secret Court written by David Stacton and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2011-06-07 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Stacton’s The Judges of The Secret Court is a long-lost triumph of American fiction as well as one of the finest books ever written about the Civil War. Stacton’s gripping and atmospheric story revolves around the brothers Edwin and John Wilkes Booth, members of a famous theatrical family. Edwin is a great actor, himself a Hamlet-like character whose performance as Hamlet will make him an international sensation. Wilkes is a blustering mediocrity on stage who is determined, however, to be an actor in history, and whose assassination of Abraham Lincoln will change America. Stacton’s novel about how the roles we play become, for better or for worse, the lives we lead, takes us back to the day of the assassination, immersing us in the farrago of bombast that fills Wilkes’s head while following his footsteps up to the fatal encounter at Ford’s Theatre. The political maneuvering around Lincoln’s deathbed and Wilkes’s desperate flight and ignominious capture then set the stage for a political show trial that will condemn not only the guilty but the—at least relatively—innocent. For as Edwin Booth broods helplessly many years later, and as Lincoln, whose tragic death and wisdom overshadow this tale, also knew, “We are all accessories before or after some fact. . . . We are all guilty of being ourselves.”
