Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Yellow Men and Gold As a schooner among the South Islands, heeling to the honest Trade, skims unaffectedly from port to port, asking but small room of the sea and intent only upon her narrow destiny and little interests; so, I know well, ought a narrative of adventure, treasure-seeking and violent meetings of men, to start, to proceed and to end. Yet from the very veraciousness of those events about to be related, it seems necessary to begin cumbersomely; as if the vessel to man uvre were a three-decker, the wind baffling and the channel, between harbor and open sea, tortuous and involved. And there will not be any plain sailing until well after the murder in the gully and the examination of the crew-man's wallet. I had determined while still in those gawky teens, from which so far as concerns locomotion I shall never emerge, to be an author. And I wrote from that period until my thirtieth year with assiduous patience and distinguished unsuccess.

Download or read book The Man of Gold Classic Reprint written by Rufino Blanco Fombona and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Man of Gold Such a tale would include youthful student days of consular service in Philadelphia, ardent political struggles, prison sentences, travels in the wilds of South America as well as amidst the culture of Spain, France, Holland, Russia; it would hold many a love idyll, at least one murder in self-defence, duels, important publishing ventures, and would reveal, circa 1920, a senor residing in Madrid, conducting a vast literary and historical propaganda (in the best sense of the word) on behalf of Spanish America and planning a few novels to follow up his El Hombre de Hierro and the book here presented to the English-reading public, El Hombre de Oro. Up to the present time the works of Blanco-JPombona include five books of verse, three of fiction, two of literary criticism, three or four of history and sociology, three miscellaneous productions (among them the exquisite Mas alia de los horizontes - Beyond the Horizons - and the kaleidoscopic La lampara de Aladino - Aladdin's Lamp) - and numerous critical prefaces scattered here and there. The man is in everything he has written, but we should be on guard lest his emphasis upon action dulls our appreciation of his more delicate qualities. For there is a delicate side to Blanco-Fombona, - the poet of the Pequena Opera lirica whom Ruben Dario praised so generously, - the novelist who, in "The Man of Gold," could draw so succinct, yet appealing a picture of the three Agualonga sisters in their ancient mansion.

To my eager questions he replied briefly that he and his party had found the gold pieces on the white men's trail far to the south, but, as the Shining buttons had no holes, the party had taken only a few of them.

To the south and south-west, from whence 'i had come, the world fell down towards verdure and cultivation, and lands watered by streams, which grew slowly, and joined together into a river far away towards the horizon.

Download or read book All About the Klondyke Gold Mines Classic Reprint written by J. Armoy Knox and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from All About the Klondyke Gold Mines Since the dawn of history man has attached to gold a value greater than that of any of the metals. Indeed, the value of every product of Mother Earth, of the fields, the forest or the mine has been fixed by its worth in gold. Hence the quest of gold has inspired mankind to acts of heroism, to a search for knowledge, and to a resignation to hardship and privation that have given to the explorer and prospector a character scarcely second to that of the heroes of the battlefield or the leaders of the world's senates. The history of the human race, even the record of the discovery of conti neuts, is largely a history of the search for the yellow treasure in its hiding places in the earth or among the elements of Nature. Columbus' voyage, which gave to the world America, with its California and now its Klondyke, was but a search for gold. Chemistry is only the offspring of alchemy, and while adventurous spirits were daring the main, suffering the torments of the tropics and the gloom of the wilderness, the but and the cave of the hermit - man's first laboratories - were the scene of other labors and privations, and all in the search for gold, gold, whether in the ground, the water or the air. - But it has remained to our own day to witness this quest extended to the region of eternal snow and rewarded among the gla cial mountains of the frozen North.
