Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rough draughts of some of the following tales and essays were actually written during a residence in the Alhambra; others were subsequently added, founded on notes and observations made there. Care was taken to maintain local coloring and verisimilitude; so that the whole might present a faithful and living picture of that microcosm, that singular little world into which I had been fortuitously thrown; and about which the external world had a very imperfect idea. It was my endeavor scrupulously to depict its half Spanish, half Oriental character; its mixture of the heroic, the poetic, and the grotesque; to revive the traces of grace and beauty fast fading from its walls; to record the regal and chivalrous traditions concerning those who once trod its courts; and the whimsical and superstitious legends of the motley race now burrowing among its ruins.

Book excerpt: Bracebridge Hall, or The Humorists, A Medley was written by Washington Irving in 1821, while he lived in England. This episodic novel is actually a location-based series of character sketches and short stories and it was originally published under his pseudonym Geoffrey Crayon. The tales revolve around the occupants of an English manor, which was occupied by members of the Bracebridge family and which Irving visited._x000D_ Washington Irving (1783-1859) was an American author, essayist, biographer, historian, and diplomat of the early 19th century. He is best known for his short stories "Rip Van Winkle" and "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" both of which appear in his book The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent. His historical works include biographies of George Washington and Oliver Goldsmith, and several histories of 15th-century Spain, dealing with subjects such as the Moors and the Alhambra. Irving served as the U.S. ambassador to Spain from 1842 to 1846. _x000D_ Table of Contents:_x000D_ The Hall_x000D_ The Busy Man_x000D_ Family Servants_x000D_ The Widow_x000D_ The Lovers_x000D_ Family Reliques_x000D_ An Old Soldier_x000D_ The Widow's Retinue_x000D_ Ready-Money Jack_x000D_ Bachelors_x000D_ A Literary Antiquary_x000D_ The Farmhouse_x000D_ Horsemanship_x000D_ Love Symptoms_x000D_ Falconry_x000D_ Hawking_x000D_ Fortune-Telling_x000D_ Love-Charms_x000D_ A Bachelor's Confessions_x000D_ Gipsies_x000D_ Village Worthies_x000D_ The Schoolmaster_x000D_ The School_x000D_ A Village Politician_x000D_ The Rookery_x000D_ May-Day_x000D_ The Culprit_x000D_ Lover's Troubles_x000D_ The Wedding_x000D_ The Stout Gentleman_x000D_ The Student of Salamanca_x000D_ Annette Delarbre_x000D_ Dolph Heyliger
