Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tenants of the Trees The author has received so many inquiries from his young readers in all parts of the country as to how he be came acquainted with the birds and squirrels, that he has deemed it wise to tell them in the introduction to this volume, when and where his acquaintance with these little tuned and feathered friends began. His aim in so doing is to show them that he has had few advantages for nature study that the average country girl or boy does not enjoy, and his hope is that their interest may be quickened so that they will begin at once, for themselves, that sweet companionship with these shy little strangers; that they will Open their ears and eyes to the song in the thicket, and the ash of fur and feathers in the tree-top, and, best of all, their hearts to the glad life about them.

Download or read book The Tenants written by Bernard Malamud and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2003-09-18 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a new introduction by Aleksandar Hemon In The Tenants (1971), Bernard Malamud brought his unerring sense of modern urban life to bear on the conflict between blacks and Jews then inflaming his native Brooklyn. The sole tenant in a rundown tenement, Henry Lesser is struggling to finish a novel, but his solitary pursuit of the sublime grows complicated when Willie Spearmint, a black writer ambivalent toward Jews, moves into the building. Henry and Willie are artistic rivals and unwilling neighbors, and their uneasy peace is disturbed by the presence of Willie's white girlfriend Irene and the landlord Levenspiel's attempts to evict both men and demolish the building. This novel's conflict, current then, is perennial now; it reveals the slippery nature of the human condition, and the human capacity for violence and undoing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tenants of Malory, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel You can best see Malory from the high grounds which, westward of the town, overlook the estuary. About a mile away you descry a dark and rather wide-spread mass of wood, lying in a gentle hollow, which, I think, deepens its sombre tint. It approaches closely to the long ripple of the sea, and through the foliage are visible some Old chimneys and glimpses Of gray gables. The refectory of the friary that once stood there, built of gray and reddish stones, half hid in ivy, now does duty as a barn. It is so embowered in trees, that you can scarcely, here and there, gain a peep from without at its tinted walls; and the whole place is overhung by a sad ness and silence that well accord with its cloistered traditions. That is Malory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Distinctions and Anomalies Arising Out of the Equitable Doctrine of the Legal Estate Classic Reprint written by Roland Moffatt Perowne Willoughby and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Distinctions and Anomalies, Arising Out of the Equitable Doctrine of the Legal Estate The endeavour at the same time made to deal with the matter upon principle, and more especially to find an intel ligible basis for the doctrines of the priority of the legal estate and tacking, may also be of some practical utility. The ascertainment of principles is of importance as well to the study of the law, as to its successful amendment1 and judicial development. If the explanation of tacking here advanced be the true one, it will appear that there has been in recent times a tendency of the courts to extend in more than one direction that justly reprobated doctrine, which, however, ao cording to the accepted judicial axiom is to be applied only within the bare limits of the old authorities which established it. But if the theories put forward should prove upon further investigation not to be sustainable, they may perhaps claim the merit appertaining to hypotheses in general, that they are necessary steps to something more certain. Perhaps too the statement as a whole of equitable doctrine concerning the legal estate as it now stands - its intricacy, its fortuitous results, its occasional injustice, its technicality and immaturities - may help to make more clear the urgency of the case for the legislative reform of English property law.
