Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Toll of the River Not on me, old man. Beside me, Nick! Said his master when they met. Sometimes Nick had shown inclination to climb upon Maurice's chest or back for a rest, but Maurice of necessity had broken him of that. And now they swam side by side in the dark water, like brothers. Maurice could rest floating, but as Nick had not that advantage, being obliged to swim all the time, his master turned to the bank after going some distance and they climbed through the narrow shallows up on the terraced shore and Nick sat on his haunches panting between the knees of his master, both securely hidden from view above by the perpendicular mud terrace against which Maurice had set his back. There they watched the moonlight wavering on the water and listened to the cicalas shrilling over the land.

Download or read book The Toll of the Sands Classic Reprint written by Paul De Laney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Toll of the Sands Paul De Laney is no swivel chair author of the West with a fiction factory at Greenwich Village. He belongs to the Southwest. It is in his blood. He was part of the rough-and-tumble frontier life of which he writes. He knows the dry and arid land where the hot winds blow and the dust devils whirl. For years he lived the life whereof he writes with such truth and enthusiasm. The result is a picture of the Nevada desert - the desert of gray sage, of greasewood, of whirling dust and blinding heat - that makes the blood sting and the imagination run real. Its atmosphere is genuine, its characters stand out life-like and vivid. He writes with conviction because the call of the desert has been burnt into him during the years in the frontier camps that claimed his early manhood. His story is a tale of hot and easy youth. The prospector, the gambler, the wildcatter, the "bad man," the honest miner; all of these walk with amazing vigor through the pages of "The Toll of the Sands." This is a tale for men, but it is one that women too will read eagerly, for the love story which runs like a fine thread through the novel makes its own charming appeal to those who want their adventure to lead toward the golden gates of love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lost River While wandering among the mountains they met a veteran miner - Jarvis Metcalf - who had gone thither to look for a rich deposit Of gold. That which led him to make this venture was a paper given to him by an Old friend, named Covington, just before he died, which paper contained the drawing of three mountain peaks, with a short, winding stream at the base. Could these landmarks be found, there would be no trouble in locating the spot where the treasure was said to exist. The doubt in the whole matter lay in the fact that the miner who made the drawing and wrote Out the directions had been clouded in his mind most of the time, and it was probable that the whole thing was a freak of his twisted brain.

Download or read book Strike Them a Blow written by Chris Mackowski and published by Savas Beatie. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil War historian and author of A Season of Slaughter continues his engaging account of the Overland Campaign in this vivid chronicle. By May of 1864, Federal commander Ulysses S. Grant had resolved to destroy his Confederate adversaries through attrition if by no other means. Meanwhile, his Confederate counterpart, Robert E. Lee, looked for an opportunity to regain the offensive initiative. “We must strike them a blow,” he told his lieutenants. But Grant’s war of attrition began to take its toll in a more insidious way. Both army commanders—exhausted and fighting off illness—began to feel the continuous, merciless grind of combat in very personal ways. Punch-drunk tired, they began to second-guess themselves, missing opportunities and making mistakes. As a result, along the banks of the North Anna River, commanders on both sides brought their armies to the brink of destruction without even knowing it.
