Book excerpt: The little plateau at the top guarded the descending road on either side for nearly a mile, and the mountain on the other side of the river was the centre of a clump of rocky, heavily timbered spurs, so inaccessible that no feet but those of wild animals or of the hardiest hunter had ever climbed it. On the side of the river on which the road lay, the only path out over the mountain except the road itself was a charcoal-burner's track, dwindling at times to a footway known only to the mountain-folk, which a picket at the top could hold against an army. The position, well defended, was impregnable, and it was well defended. This the general of the division knew when he detailed the old Colonel and gave him his order to hold the pass until relieved, and not let his guns fall into the hands of the enemy. He knew both the Colonel and his battery. The battery was one of the oldest in the army. It had been in the service since April, 1861, and its commander had come to be known as "The Wheel Horse of his division". He was, perhaps, the oldest officer of his rank in his branch of the service. Although he had bitterly opposed secession, and was many years past the age of service when the war came on, yet as soon as the President called on the State for her quota of troops to coerce South Carolina, he had raised and uniformed an artillery company, and offered it, not to the President of the United States, but to the Governor of Virginia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Burial, the Guns We do not keep Christmas now as we used to do in old Hanover. We have not time for it, and it does not seem like the same thing. Christmas, however, always brings up to me my cousin Fanny; I suppose because she always was so foolish about Christmas. My cousin Fanny was an old maid; indeed, to follow St. Paul's turn of phrase, she was an old maid of the old maids. No one who saw her a moment could have doubted it. Old maids have from most people a feeling rather akin to pity - a hard heritage. They very often have this feeling from the young. This must be the hardest part of all - to see around them friends, each a happy mother of children, little ones responding to affection with the sweet caresses of childhood, whilst any advances that they, their aunts or cousins, may make are met with indifference or condescension. My cousin Fanny was no exception. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Burial of the Guns" is a poignant and evocative short tale written by using the acclaimed American author Thomas Nelson Page. Published in the overdue nineteenth century, this narrative is ready against the backdrop of the American Civil War and beautifully captures the iconic spirit of the South inside the aftermath of defeat. The tale revolves around a collection of Confederate infantrymen who, following their surrender, face the tough selection of what to do with their cherished artillery portions. These guns, which had been instrumental of their wartime efforts, keep profound sentimental cost to the guys. They grapple with the concept of maintaining their memory by means of burying the weapons instead of letting them be taken by the successful Union forces. Thomas Nelson Page's writing is characterised by means of its wealthy and vivid descriptions, as well as its exploration of the complex emotions of the characters. Through his storytelling, Page delves into issues of honor, resilience, and the indomitable spirit of the Southern people inside the face of defeat. "The Burial of the Guns" is a transferring portrayal of the put up-Civil War South, imparting readers a glimpse into the profound experience of loss and nostalgia skilled with the aid of people who had fought within the warfare.

No touch of fiction obscures the truthful recital. The crime which is here detailed was actually committed, and under the circumstances which I have related. The four young men, whose real names are clothed with the charitable mantle of fiction, deliberately perpetrated the deed for which they suffered and to-day are inmates of a prison. No tint or coloring of the imagination has given a deeper touch to the action of the story, and the process of detection is detailed with all the frankness and truthfulness of an active participant.
