Folk who dwell in it seldom stray farther west than the Bowery, rarely cross the river that flows sluggishly on its eastern border. They live their lives out, with something that might be termed a feverish stolidity, in the dim crowded flats, and upon the thronged streets. To the people who have homes on Central Park West, to the frail winged moths who flutter up and down Broadway, this section does not exist. Its poor are not the picturesque poor of the city's Latin quarter, its criminals seldom win to the notoriety of a front page and inch-high headlines; it almost never produces a genius for the world to smile upon - its talent does not often break away from the undefined, but none the less certain, limits of the district. It is curious that this part of town is seldom featured in song or story, for it is certainly neither dull nor unproductive of plot.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Island Cabin While the world on shore is gasping in the heat I am sitting on the porch of my island cabin, the sound of the incoming tide in my ears, the cool salt air sweeping about me. There are those so poor that they must walk through the blazing streets to their work in stores and factories. There are those rich enough to idle the summer in mountain and water-side resorts. I belong to neither of these classes, nor to any of the grades between. I am so poor in pocket that, were I in the city, I should often walk to save my nickel, and yet my days are filled with such comfort and delight as only the possessor of millions is supposed to enjoy. I am lord of an Isle. The nearest mainland is a mile away. I have not seen a policeman nor disagreed with my neighbor for a month. There are days together when the wide stretch of water between me and all laws and customs is rough enough to swamp a boat. Every stone and inch of earth, the great rocks and smooth white beach of my little kingdom are mine to do with as I will. The wind and water bring food and fuel to my borders, requiring of me only the effort of taking it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Island of Fire: Or, a Thousand Years of the Old Northmen's Home, 874-1874 This volume was suggested by a contribution to The Cornhill Magazine upon Iceland, in connection with the then approaching Millennial Jubilee. In seeking historical light upon a subject respecting which the writer confesses he was in the dark, very few works could be found outside Of Our largest libraries; and those, were imported books. It was the first thought to write a small volume for young people especially, and the preparation of it was commenced. But the field Of history opened SO rich in material, that the work grew to its present size and style, instead of the juvenile narrative proposed. And if the reader finds, In the imperfect narrative, a tithe Of the fascinating interest afforded in gathering the facts, nothing more, in this regard, could be desired.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poison Island It was in the dusk of a July evening of the year 1813 (July 27, to be precise) that on my way back from the mail-coach office, Falmouth, to Mr. Stimcoe's Academy for the Sons of Gentlemen, No. 7, Delamere Terrace, I first met Captain Coffin as he came, drunk and cursing, up the Market Strand, with a rabble of children at his heels. I have reason to remember the date and hour of this encounter, not only for its remarkable consequences, but because it befell on the very day and within an hour or two of my matriculation at Stimcoe's. That afternoon I had arrived at Falmouth by Royal Mail, in charge of Miss Plinlimmon, my father's housekeeper; and now but ten minutes ago I had seen off that excellent lady and waved farewell to her - not without a sinking of the heart - on her return journey to Minden Cottage, which was my home.
