The honest truth is, that I had no great fancy for one more than for another. I should have preferred that of a gentleman at large, with an independent fortune. But it had been so ordained that I should not possess the latter very satisfactory means of subsistence; and it was necessary, if I wished to support myself like a gentleman, that I should choose some calling by which I could at least obtain an income, supposing that I had not the talent to realise a large fortune.\nMy father, Captain Michael Kearney, had a small estate, but it was slightly encumbered, like many another in old Ireland; and he had no intention of beggaring my brother and sister in order to benefit me. In a certain sense, it is true, they were provided for. Ellen had married Captain Patrick Maloney of the Rangers, who had, however, little beyond his pay to live on. My younger brother, Barry, had entered the navy; but as he drew fifty pounds a year and occasionally other sums from my fathers pocket, it cannot be said that he was off his hands. I also had once thought of becoming a sailor, for the sake of visiting foreign lands; but I had allowed the time to pass, and was now considered too old to go to sea. I then took a fancy for the army; but my father declared that he could not afford to purchase a commission for me, and I had no chance of getting one in any other way. I talked of the law; but when I heard of the dry books I should have to study, and the drier parchments over which I should have to pore, I shuddered at the thought, and hastily abandoned the idea.\n\u003cb\u003e ......Buy Now (To Read More)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEbook Number\u003c\/b\u003e: 24547 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Kingston, William Henry Giles \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Feb 8, 2008 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat\u003c\/b\u003e: eBook \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage\u003c\/b\u003e: English \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eContributors\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIllustrator\u003c\/b\u003e: Davis, John Steeple, 1844-1917 \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Kingston, William Henry Giles,1814-1880 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43218240012445,"sku":"gb-24547-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/24547.jpg?v=1671472481"},{"product_id":"the-wild-man-of-the-west-a-tale-of-the-rocky-mountains-gb-24617","title":"The Wild Man of the West: A Tale of the Rocky Mountains","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Wild Man of the West: A Tale of the Rocky Mountains\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarch Marston was mad! The exact state of madness to which March had attained at the age when we take up his personal historynamely, sixteenis uncertain, for the people of the backwoods settlement in which he dwelt differed in their opinions on that point.\nThe clergyman, who was a Wesleyan, said he was as wild as a young buffalo bull; but the manner in which he said so led his hearers to conclude that he did not think such a state of ungovernable madness to be a hopeless condition, by any means. The doctor said he was as mad as a hatter; but this was an indefinite remark, worthy of a doctor who had never obtained a diploma, and required explanation, inasmuch as it was impossible to know how mad he considered a hatter to be. Some of the trappers who came to the settlement for powder and lead, said he was as mad as a grisly bear with a whooping-cougha remark which, if true, might tend to throw light on the diseases to which the grisly bear is liable, but which failed to indicate to any one, except perhaps trappers, the extent of young Marstons madness. The carpenter and the blacksmith of the placewho were fast friends and had a pitched battle only once a month, or twice at mostagreed in saying that he was as mad as a wild-cat. In short, every one asserted stoutly that the boy was mad, with the exception of the women of the settlement, who thought him a fine, bold, handsome fellow; and his own mother, who thought him a paragon of perfection, and who held the opinion (privately) that, in the wide range of the habitable globe there was not another like himand she was not far wrong!\n\u003cb\u003e ......Buy Now (To Read More)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEbook Number\u003c\/b\u003e: 24617 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Ballantyne, R.

Perhaps such an apology is\r\nmore necessary now than it was then; but the warm reception given to the\r\nbook on all sidesby literary critics, as well as by ethnologists and\r\nstudents of folk-lore, in this country and in Europehas led the author\r\nto believe that a volume embodying everything, or nearly everything, of\r\nimportance in the oral literature of the negroes of the Southern States,\r\nwould be as heartily welcomed.\nThe thirty-four legends in the first volume were merely selections from\r\nthe large body of plantation folk-lore familiar to the author from his\r\nchildhood, and these selections were made less with an eye to their\r\nethnological importance than with a view to presenting certain quaint\r\nand curious race characteristics, of which the world at large had had\r\neither vague or greatly exaggerated notions.\nThe first book, therefore, must be the excuse and apology for the\r\npresent volume. Indeed, the first book made the second a necessity; for,\r\nimmediately upon its appearance, [xii]letters and correspondence began to\r\npour in upon the author from all parts of the South. Much of this\r\ncorrespondence was very valuable, for it embodied legends that had\r\nescaped the author's memory, and contained hints and suggestions that\r\nled to some very interesting discoveries. The result is, that the\r\npresent volume is about as complete as it could be made under the\r\ncircumstances, though there is no doubt of the existence of legends and\r\nmyths, especially upon the rice plantations, and Sea Islands of the\r\nGeorgia and Carolina seacoast, which, owing to the difficulties that\r\nstand in the way of those who attempt to gather them, are not included\r\nin this collection.\n\u003cb\u003e ......Buy Now (To Read More)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEbook Number\u003c\/b\u003e: 26429 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Harris, Joel Chandler \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Aug 25, 2008 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat\u003c\/b\u003e: eBook \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage\u003c\/b\u003e: English \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Harris, Joel Chandler,1848-1908 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43218796183709,"sku":"gb-26429-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/26429.jpg?v=1671505931"},{"product_id":"the-wind-in-the-willows-gb-27805","title":"The Wind in the Willows","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Wind in the Willows\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTHE Mole had been working very hard all\r\nthe morning, spring-cleaning his little\r\nhome.

But the bear, with that tiny black form at the\r\nbottom of the den filling her whole horizon, could not conceive that the\r\nman's approach had any other purpose than to rob her of her treasure.\r\nShe ran back to the little one, nosed it gently into a corner, and\r\nanxiously pawed some dry leaves half over it. Then, her eyes aflame with\r\nrage and fear, she betook herself once more to the entrance, and\r\ncrouched there motionless to await the coming of the enemy.\n\u003cb\u003e ......Buy Now (To Read More)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEbook Number\u003c\/b\u003e: 38675 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Roberts, Charles G.

The desire\r\nof the woods awoke in us. The vagrant blood\r\nthat lurks in the veins of our race sprang up and\r\nrefused to be still. The very next day we fled\r\nfrom the city and starched collars, seeking freedom\r\nand the cool of the wilderness.\nIt was toward Lake Temiscouata and the wilds\r\nof the Squatooks that we set our eager faces. In\r\nshirt-sleeves and moccasins we went. For convenience\r\nwe had our clothes stitched full of pockets.\r\nOur three good birch canoes and our other impedimenta\r\nwe put on board a flat-car at the station.\r\nAnd that same evening found us at the village of\r\n2\r\nEdmundston, where the Madawaska flows into the\r\nSt. John at a point about one hundred and fifty\r\nmiles above Fredericton.\nUnless you are an experienced canoeman, skilled\r\nnot only with the paddle but with the pole, and\r\nexpert to run the roughest rapids, you should take\r\na guide with you on the Squatook trip. You\r\nshould go in the bow of your canoe, with a trusty\r\nIndian in the stern; one Indian and one canoe for\r\neach man of the party. The art of poling a birch-bark\r\nagainst a stiff current is no easy one to acquire,\r\nand needs both aptitude and practice. Your\r\nIndian will teach you in the gentler waters; and\r\nthe rest of the time you may lounge at your ease,\r\ncasting a fly from side to side, and ever climbing\r\non between the changing shores. But as for us,\r\nwe needed no Indians. We were all six masters\r\nof canoe-craft. Each took his turn at the white\r\nspruce pole; and we conquered the currents rejoicing.\n\u003cb\u003e ......Buy Now (To Read More)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEbook Number\u003c\/b\u003e: 48986 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Roberts, Charles G.

Such investigators\r\ninvestigate only one side of\r\ntheir subject. They start out handicapped\r\nwith the old theory that in every\r\nrespect the human animal is superior to\r\nevery other, without attempting to\r\nanalyze unseen interior conditions,\r\nwhether natural or developed.\nIn relation to natural conditions,\r\nthe large majority of Christian sects are\r\nperfectly logical. They lay down as\r\na clearly established fundamental fact\r\nthat all human beings, owing to what\r\nthey designate as Adams fall, are born\r\ninto this world morally corrupt and\r\ncompletely depraved, but that they\r\n3\r\nhave within their control for ready application\r\nan appropriate panacea for a\r\ncertain cure of these natural defects.\r\nBut the optimist neither admits the disease\r\nnor the necessity for cure; he says\r\nalways, at least inferentially, that all\r\nhuman beings come into the world in a\r\nstate of innocence and purity, and that\r\ntheir few defects represent a certain\r\namount of degeneration.\n\u003cb\u003e ......Buy Now (To Read More)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEbook Number\u003c\/b\u003e: 53423 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Hawkins, Rush C.

Scarcely had the salmon tints\r\nwhich the sun had left in the west disappeared.\r\nThrough the pure, lambent air\r\nthe rolling tones of the farmer could be\r\nheard as he called his pigs home. Above\r\nthe high hills gleamed the timid tapers of\r\nthe early stars. A low breeze was chanting\r\na gentle vesper among the pines and\r\noaks upon the knob-side. A blundering\r\nrabbit butted blindly through the weeds\r\non the creek bank; a bullfrog, fat and\r\ninert, bellowed forth his thunderous note;\r\na muskrat splashed softly from a half-sunken\r\nlog and spread his flat paddles to\r\npropel him to his hidden home.

In all this\r\nmountain realm, a land where the wild things\r\nof the forest still held sway, there was no creature\r\nof more majestic bearing or noble beauty. He\r\nwas full-grown; his great antlers swept back over\r\nhis powerful shoulders; and it was evident from\r\nhis carriage that he had no fear of such enemies\r\nas might be lurking in the gloomy canyon. For\r\nit was known far through the forest that even the\r\ngreat puma or the terrible grizzly, unless they\r\nhad the advantage of ambush, treated Spread\r\nHorn with considerable respect.\nSigns of July were everywhere: signs that\r\nwere large print and clear to the eyes of the wild\r\ncreatures, but which would have been mostly unintelligible\r\nto men. The huckleberries were just\r\nbeginning to ripen in the thickets as always, in\r\nthe seventh month. The fledglings, the little\r\nweasel noticed as he climbed here and there\r\nthrough the branches, were just the July size,still\r\nsoft with the fat of squabhood but yet big\r\nenough to make a pleasing lump in the stomach.\r\nThe pines are a wonderful calendar in themselves;\r\nand only to the eyes of human beings,\r\nbadly in need of spectacles, do they seem never\r\nto change. They go from a deep, rich green to a\r\nstrange dusky blue, and now they were just about\r\nhalfway between. This fact, as well as the size\r\nand developments of their cones, indicated as\r\nclearly as a printed calendar that the month was\r\nJuly.
