XII A CHRISTENING PARTY I LAUGHED and cried together this morning when I got the pencilled note in which you gave me the description of your baby. If that account is to be considered as veracious, and strictly impartial, he is simply the most perfect creature who has ever visited this mortal sphere since the time of the Greek gods. The most perfect little features (even now), the bluest eyes, like old china plates, a complexion as soft as roseleaves, and the dearest little hands I The feet with which he will condescend to tread the earth when the right time arrives are rosy as a seashell--only fit for kissing now; and surely no baby ever had such dear dimpled shoulders, or such a lovely straight back! And better than all is the lovely smile which he keeps for no one but you. When the nurse kept telling people that he "took no notice" as yet, he 232 would always turn a sweet contented glance upon you--a look full of expression, as who would say: "What talks you and I will have one of these days!" He is all that your fancy painted him, and more; no such lovely creature has ever been seen on the face of this globe since it first began to roll. Indeed, my dear Letty, I am not laughing at you, I am sure every word is true. There is only one baby in the world like this--I suppose I must not tell you he is every mother's first child! I can fancy how many plans you are revolving in your mind as you lie apparently idle on your couch. The nursery rhymes you remember, the many little tales you will tell him one day. when you shall be his unwearied Scheherazade; the toys you will give him, the pleasures and treats; the joy of walking with your little son, and feeling his tiny hand in yours. Everyone will love him--it will be impossible to avoid...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book 4 | The Debutants of the West It had been the perfect plan. No detail is left to chance. So, what went wrong? Marianne Sheffield is a practical woman who approaches every problem with a solid plan of action. So, when her identical twin sister needed help getting out of an arranged marriage, Mari took control. Confident she would have no problem outsmarting the ambitious Mr. Banks, she postponed the unwanted wedding until Christmas hoping to wreak havoc on the man’s life and force him to beg off and save her parents from embarrassment. Her plan failed and soon, she found herself married and on her way to Durango with her new husband for a Colorado Christmas. While they enjoyed the festive spirit of the small mountain town, she began to sense there was more to the man than just his rugged good looks and hefty bank account—much, much more. Now, Mari realizes she’s the one who may have been outsmarted. John Maximillian Banks is a man used to getting what he wants. And when it comes to women, he’s rarely disappointed. When he and Charles Sheffield agreed to merge their companies into one of the largest transportation companies in the region, it was no surprise when his new business partner sealed the deal by offering his eldest daughter to Max in marriage and making it a family affair. However, it didn’t take long to realize that something was amiss. The stunningly beautiful debutante seemed different than he remembered her. She had been sweet, soft-spoken, and kind then. Now, she was strong-willed. Bold. One could say even bossy. Certainly not the match he had hoped for, but there was something about the feisty, outspoken, dark-haired beauty that made him wish for more than their business arrangement. He had already won her hand. Now, all he wants is her heart for Christmas. Sometimes the most precious gifts aren’t found inside a pretty box under the Christmas tree.

Download or read book A Letter to the Women of England and The Natural Daughter written by Mary Robinson and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2003-01-02 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Robinson’s A Letter to the Women of England (1799) is a radical response to the rampant anti-feminist sentiment of the late 1790s. In this work, Robinson encourages her female contemporaries to throw off the “glittering shackles” of custom and to claim their rightful places as the social and intellectual equals of men. Separately published in the same year, Robinson’s novel The Natural Daughter follows the story of Martha Morley, who defies her husband’s authority, adopts a found infant, is barred from her husband’s estate and is driven to seek work as an actress and author. The novel implicitly links and critiques domestic tyrants in England and Jacobin tyrants in France. This edition also includes: other writings by Mary Robinson (tributes, and an excerpt from The Progress of Liberty); writings by contemporaries on women, society, and revolution; and contemporary reviews of both works.
Download or read book Henry Adams Selected Letters written by Henry Adams and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ernest Samuels's Pulitzer Prize-winning, multi-volume work on Henry Adams is now a compact, updated, one-volume biography. Henry Adams has been called an indispensable figure in American thought. Although he famously "took his own life" in the autobiographical Education of Henry Adams, his letters--more intimate and unbuttoned, though hardly unselfconscious--are themselves indispensable for an understanding of the man and his times. This selection, the first based on the authoritative 6-volume Letters, represents every major private and public event in Adams's life from 1858 to 1918 and confirms his reputation as one of the greatest letter writers of his time. Adams knew everyone who was anyone and went almost everywhere, and--true to the Adams family tradition--recorded it all. These letters to an array of correspondents from American presidents to Henry James to 5-year-old honorary nieces reveal Adams's passion for politics and disdain for politicians, his snobbish delight in society and sincere affection for friends, his pose of dilettantism and his serious ambitions as writer and historian, his devastation at his wife's suicide and his acquiescence in the role of Elizabeth Cameron's "tame cat," his wicked humor at others' expense and his own reflexive self-depreciation. This volume allows the reader to experience 19th-century America through the eyes of an observer on whom very little was lost, and to make the acquaintance of one of the more interesting personalities in American letters. As Ernest Samuels says in his introduction, "The letters lift the veil of old-age disenchantment that obscures the Education and exhibit Adams as perhaps the most brilliant letter writer of his time. What most engages one in the long course of his correspondence is the tireless range of his intellectual curiosity, his passionate effort to understand the politics, the science, and the human society of the world as it changed around him... It is as literature of a high order that his letters can finally be read."
