Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glances Back Through Seventy Years, Vol. 1 of 2: Autobiographical and Other Reminiscences The public will be the best judges whether the author of the following pages was well or ill-advised by partial friends to pen these rambling reminiscences of an active, if not an exciting career, covering well-nigh three reigns. The chapters that form a contribution to the history of Pictorial journalism, and the recollections of Mr. Thackeray and a few other notable men, French as well as English, may possibly have a certain value, mixed up though they be with notices of men and things which the world, in its peremptory way, has made up its mind to forget. Yet readers, on the whole, may find the writer's reminder of such matters not uninteresting, and the volumes generally neither prosy nor dull. This is the utmost the writer pretends to claim for them, and in this spirit he commends the book to his brethren of the press.

We stayed three or four days only in Paris. Returning, via Pontoise, we again dined off our former fare, with mixed company, including two or three British officers. We sat at table too long to think of pro ceeding, slept, and finding my friend would not move the next morning, I rode home alone. He had met an old Peninsular brother Officer. In two days, my companion returned, riding his horse so hard in a burning August day, that it died in consequence. It was the last of four he had taken with him to Spain. Had the horse been mine, I should never have forgiven myself, for it was a noble animal. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This tourist from the New World had crossed the Atlantic in a yacht, and, entering Europe by the Mediterranean, had landed at Barcelona, where he made the acquaintance of Her Britannic Majesty's Consul, James Hannay, who gave him the letter of introduction that made him a welcome guest at 43, Springfield Road.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of the Last Sixty-Five Years, Vol. 2 of 2: Commencing With the Battle of Lexington; Also, Sketches of Hos Own Life and Times At this period the country was bare of every thing; those few, very few, who had money, could not purchase necessaries, for they were not to be had. There were no goods in the country, and provisions were very scarce. Ihave rode ten miles back and forth, to purchase salt pork at twenty cents per pound, which was equal to half a dollar now. The men who composed the then late army, were taken from the pursuit of agriculture, and many an acre was left uncultivated accordingly; not even bread was to be had in sufficient quantity, until it could be raised.

This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Random Recollections of an Old Publisher, Vol. 2 of 2 One of the, if not the very last engagement Mr. Toole had at the Gaiety Theatre in the Strand before he went to America might have led to a much more serious misunderstanding than it did. I think I am right in saying that John Hollingshead seldom had written agreements with any of the principal people in the company. His word was his bond; and his word was good for any sum to his staff. Toole's understanding in this particular engagement was that he was to take one-half of the receipts after, I think, seventy pounds per night. Now, on the face of that understanding, it would certainly seem that no mistake could arise, because, if there was not seventy pounds in the house any night, Toole would not receive anything. And it so happened there were nights when the receipts were under seventy pounds; but on Monday and Saturday, at the least, there was nearly double that sum per night.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections, Vol. 1 of 2 The war and our action in it led to my retirement from public office. The world is travelling under formidable omens into a new era, very unlike the times in which my lot was cast. This is no reason why an effort to recall some lines in the physiognomy of those times should be out of place or season. There is an old saying that to live is to outlive. This is not to tell us that "from the tablet should be abolished quite the cheerful past." It means no more than that Ideals have their hours and fade. The oracle of to-day drops from his tripod on the morrow. In common lines of human thought and act, as in the business of the elements, winds shift, tides ebb and flow, the boat swings. Only let the anchor hold. We should not cast our horoscopes too narrowly. One's first associations must have been ill chosen if fidelity to their essence and foundations comes to be overclouded by the falling mists of afternoon. Mockers say that men of principle are dispensed from the necessity of succeeding; principle is its own reward. But the ironic point depends on your standard of success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of My Life, Vol. 2 of 3 For the second time in the course of one year, and in high spirits, I entered Messina; again, as on a former occasion, a charming voyage was in store for me again, as before, a golden morning shone in Sicilian splen dour. But man is a strange and inconceivable creature, longing for new impressions, and these were not new, so I was not enthusiastic, for I had seen Spain. I was glad, however, to be able to run into Messina this time, and was pleasantly surprised to find in the middle of a well secured and closed harbour the celebrated Charlemagne, ' the first screw line-of - battle ship of France, which was a matter of great interest to us sailors. The harbour is not large, but is secured by piers and chiefly filled by coasters. The marine and commercial life is concentrated on the shore, and is so busy and loud that it is heard on entering the harbour as the noise of a waterfall; it annoyed our German phlegm by that nu meaning and wild contention and roaring which is a part of these perpetually noisy southerners. It was the fish-market, and a colossal swordfish, caught in the Faro, was exhibited for sale in a booth. Here was opportunity enough for quarrels, furious curses, ear-piercing cries, each trying to outcry the other, the favourite mode of wrestling amongst the Italians of to-day. Before suspecting any harm, one of our friends had his pocket picked of his handkerchief which gave occasion to much annoyance and amusement and was a caution for the future.
