A mist of fine\r\nsnowflakes was curling and eddying about the cluster of low drab buildings\r\nhuddled on the gray prairie, under a gray sky. The dwelling-houses were set\r\nabout haphazard on the tough prairie sod; some of them looked as if they had\r\nbeen moved in overnight, and others as if they were straying off by themselves,\r\nheaded straight for the open plain.

On either side of\r\nthis road straggled two uneven rows of wooden buildings; the general\r\nmerchandise stores, the two banks, the drug store, the feed store, the saloon,\r\nthe post-office. The board sidewalks were gray with trampled snow, but at two\r\noclock in the afternoon the shopkeepers, having come back from dinner,\r\nwere keeping well behind their frosty windows. The children were all in school,\r\nand there was nobody abroad in the streets but a few rough-looking countrymen\r\nin coarse overcoats, with their long caps pulled down to their noses. Some of\r\nthem had brought their wives to town, and now and then a red or a plaid shawl\r\nflashed out of one store into the shelter of another. At the hitch-bars along\r\nthe street a few heavy work-horses, harnessed to farm wagons, shivered under\r\ntheir blankets.

The first time was three or four years since, when I\r\nfavoured the readerinexcusably, and for no earthly reason that either\r\nthe indulgent reader or the intrusive author could imaginewith a\r\ndescription of my way of life in the deep quietude of an Old Manse.

The example of the\r\nfamous P. P., Clerk of this Parish, was never more faithfully\r\nfollowed. The truth seems to be, however, that when he casts his leaves forth\r\nupon the wind, the author addresses, not the many who will fling aside his\r\nvolume, or never take it up, but the few who will understand him better than\r\nmost of his schoolmates or lifemates.

It\r\nis scarcely decorous, however, to speak all, even where we speak impersonally.\r\nBut, as thoughts are frozen and utterance benumbed, unless the speaker stand in\r\nsome true relation with his audience, it may be pardonable to imagine that a\r\nfriend, a kind and apprehensive, though not the closest friend, is listening to\r\nour talk; and then, a native reserve being thawed by this genial consciousness,\r\nwe may prate of the circumstances that lie around us, and even of ourself, but\r\nstill keep the inmost Me behind its veil.

Are we or they Lords of the World? . . . And\r\n    how are all things made for man?\r\n    KEPLER (quoted in The Anatomy of Melancholy)\n\n\r\nNo one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that\r\nthis world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than\r\nmans and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about\r\ntheir various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as\r\nnarrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures\r\nthat swarm and multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacency men went\r\nto and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their\r\nassurance of their empire over matter. It is possible that the infusoria under\r\nthe microscope do the same. No one gave a thought to the older worlds of space\r\nas sources of human danger, or thought of them only to dismiss the idea of life\r\nupon them as impossible or improbable. It is curious to recall some of the\r\nmental habits of those departed days. At most terrestrial men fancied there\r\nmight be other men upon Mars, perhaps inferior to themselves and ready to\r\nwelcome a missionary enterprise. Yet across the gulf of space, minds that are\r\nto our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast\r\nand cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly\r\nand surely drew their plans against us. And early in the twentieth century came\r\nthe great disillusionment.\r\n\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: 36 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Wells, H.

Not far\r\nfrom this village, perhaps about two miles, there is a little valley or rather\r\nlap of land among high hills, which is one of the quietest places in the whole\r\nworld.

Rachel Lynde lived\r\njust where the Avonlea main road dipped down into a little hollow, fringed with\r\nalders and ladies eardrops and traversed by a brook that had its source\r\naway back in the woods of the old Cuthbert place; it was reputed to be an\r\nintricate, headlong brook in its earlier course through those woods, with dark\r\nsecrets of pool and cascade; but by the time it reached Lyndes Hollow it\r\nwas a quiet, well-conducted little stream, for not even a brook could run past\r\nMrs. Rachel Lyndes door without due regard for decency and decorum; it\r\nprobably was conscious that Mrs. Rachel was sitting at her window, keeping a\r\nsharp eye on everything that passed, from brooks and children up, and that if\r\nshe noticed anything odd or out of place she would never rest until she had\r\nferreted out the whys and wherefores thereof.\r\n\n\r\nThere are plenty of people in Avonlea and out of it, who can attend closely to\r\ntheir neighbors business by dint of neglecting their own; but Mrs.\r\nRachel Lynde was one of those capable creatures who can manage their own\r\nconcerns and those of other folks into the bargain. She was a notable\r\nhousewife; her work was always done and well done; she ran the\r\nSewing Circle, helped run the Sunday-school, and was the strongest prop of the\r\nChurch Aid Society and Foreign Missions Auxiliary. Yet with all this Mrs.\r\nRachel found abundant time to sit for hours at her kitchen window, knitting\r\ncotton warp quiltsshe had knitted sixteen of them, as\r\nAvonlea housekeepers were wont to tell in awed voicesand keeping a sharp\r\neye on the main road that crossed the hollow and wound up the steep red hill\r\nbeyond. Since Avonlea occupied a little triangular peninsula jutting out into\r\nthe Gulf of St. Lawrence with water on two sides of it, anybody who went out of\r\nit or into it had to pass over that hill road and so run the unseen gauntlet of\r\nMrs. Rachels all-seeing eye.\r\n\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: 45 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Montgomery, L.

The latter form of composition is presumed to aim at a very\r\nminute fidelity, not merely to the possible, but to the probable and ordinary\r\ncourse of mans experience. The formerwhile, as a work of art, it\r\nmust rigidly subject itself to laws, and while it sins unpardonably so far as\r\nit may swerve aside from the truth of the human hearthas fairly a right\r\nto present that truth under circumstances, to a great extent, of the\r\nwriters own choosing or creation. If he think fit, also, he may so\r\nmanage his atmospherical medium as to bring out or mellow the lights and deepen\r\nand enrich the shadows of the picture. He will be wise, no doubt, to make a\r\nvery moderate use of the privileges here stated, and, especially, to mingle the\r\nMarvelous rather as a slight, delicate, and evanescent flavor, than as any\r\nportion of the actual substance of the dish offered to the public. He can\r\nhardly be said, however, to commit a literary crime even if he disregard this\r\ncaution.\r\n\n\r\nIn the present work, the author has proposed to himselfbut with what\r\nsuccess, fortunately, it is not for him to judgeto keep undeviatingly\r\nwithin his immunities. The point of view in which this tale comes under the\r\nRomantic definition lies in the attempt to connect a bygone time with the very\r\npresent that is flitting away from us. It is a legend prolonging itself, from\r\nan epoch now gray in the distance, down into our own broad daylight, and\r\nbringing along with it some of its legendary mist, which the reader, according\r\nto his pleasure, may either disregard, or allow it to float almost\r\nimperceptibly about the characters and events for the sake of a picturesque\r\neffect. The narrative, it may be, is woven of so humble a texture as to require\r\nthis advantage, and, at the same time, to render it the more difficult of\r\nattainment.\r\n\n\r\nMany writers lay very great stress upon some definite moral purpose, at which\r\nthey profess to aim their works. Not to be deficient in this particular, the\r\nauthor has provided himself with a moral,the truth, namely, that the\r\nwrong-doing of one generation lives into the successive ones, and, divesting\r\nitself of every temporary advantage, becomes a pure and uncontrollable\r\nmischief; and he would feel it a singular gratification if this romance might\r\neffectually convince mankindor, indeed, any one manof the folly\r\nof tumbling down an avalanche of ill-gotten gold, or real estate, on the heads\r\nof an unfortunate posterity, thereby to maim and crush them, until the\r\naccumulated mass shall be scattered abroad in its original atoms. In good\r\nfaith, however, he is not sufficiently imaginative to flatter himself with the\r\nslightest hope of this kind. When romances do really teach anything, or produce\r\nany effective operation, it is usually through a far more subtile process than\r\nthe ostensible one. The author has considered it hardly worth his while,\r\ntherefore, relentlessly to impale the story with its moral as with an iron\r\nrod,or, rather, as by sticking a pin through a butterfly,thus at\r\nonce depriving it of life, and causing it to stiffen in an ungainly and\r\nunnatural attitude. A high truth, indeed, fairly, finely, and skilfully wrought\r\nout, brightening at every step, and crowning the final development of a work of\r\nfiction, may add an artistic glory, but is never any truer, and seldom any more\r\nevident, at the last page than at the first.\r\n\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: 77 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Hawthorne, Nathaniel \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Aug 1, 1993 \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":"Hawthorne, Nathaniel,1804-1864 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43211083088029,"sku":"gb-77-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/77_62ad5af6-9a00-4b73-af72-3a72fa33a35d.jpg?v=1671247358"},{"product_id":"tarzan-of-the-apes-gb-78","title":"Tarzan of the Apes","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTarzan of the Apes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nI had this story from one who had no business to tell it to me, or to any\r\nother.

It was plain, however, that\r\nfrequent publication must finally wear out the public favour, unless some mode\r\ncould be devised to give an appearance of novelty to subsequent productions.\r\nScottish manners, Scottish dialect, and Scottish characters of note, being\r\nthose with which the author was most intimately, and familiarly acquainted,\r\nwere the groundwork upon which he had hitherto relied for giving effect to his\r\nnarrative. It was, however, obvious, that this kind of interest must in the end\r\noccasion a degree of sameness and repetition, if exclusively resorted to, and\r\nthat the reader was likely at length to adopt the language of Edwin, in\r\nParnells Tale:\r\n\n\r\nReverse the spell, he cries,\r\nAnd let it fairly now suffice.\r\nThe gambol has been shown.\r\n\n\r\nNothing can be more dangerous for the fame of a professor of the fine arts,\r\nthan to permit (if he can possibly prevent it) the character of a mannerist to\r\nbe attached to him, or that he should be supposed capable of success only in a\r\nparticular and limited style. The public are, in general, very ready to adopt\r\nthe opinion, that he who has pleased them in one peculiar mode of composition,\r\nis, by means of that very talent, rendered incapable of venturing upon other\r\nsubjects. The effect of this disinclination, on the part of the public, towards\r\nthe artificers of their pleasures, when they attempt to enlarge their means of\r\namusing, may be seen in the censures usually passed by vulgar criticism upon\r\nactors or artists who venture to change the character of their efforts, that,\r\nin so doing, they may enlarge the scale of their art.\r\n\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: 82 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Scott, Walter \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Jun 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":"Scott, Walter,1771-1832 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43211083612317,"sku":"gb-82-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/82_796c08a6-4497-480e-bbf4-57e47ebdaeaa.jpg?v=1671247369"},{"product_id":"from-the-earth-to-the-moon-and-round-the-moon-gb-83","title":"From the Earth to the Moon and, Round the Moon","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrom the Earth to the Moon; and, Round the Moon\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nDuring the year 186-, the whole world was greatly excited by a scientific\r\nexperiment unprecedented in the annals of science. The members of the Gun Club,\r\na circle of artillerymen formed at Baltimore after the American war, conceived\r\nthe idea of putting themselves in communication with the moon!yes, with\r\nthe moonby sending to her a projectile. Their president, Barbicane, the\r\npromoter of the enterprise, having consulted the astronomers of the Cambridge\r\nObservatory upon the subject, took all necessary means to ensure the success of\r\nthis extraordinary enterprise, which had been declared practicable by the\r\nmajority of competent judges. After setting on foot a public subscription,\r\nwhich realized nearly L1,200,000, they began the gigantic work.\r\n\n\r\nAccording to the advice forwarded from the members of the Observatory, the gun\r\ndestined to launch the projectile had to be fixed in a country situated between\r\nthe 0 and 28th degrees of north or south latitude, in order to aim at the moon\r\nwhen at the zenith; and its initiatory velocity was fixed at twelve thousand\r\nyards to the second. Launched on the 1st of December, at 10hrs. 46m. 40s. P.M.,\r\nit ought to reach the moon four days after its departure, that is on the 5th of\r\nDecember, at midnight precisely, at the moment of her attaining her perigee,\r\nthat is her nearest distance from the earth, which is exactly 86,410 leagues\r\n(French), or 238,833 miles mean distance (English).\r\n\n\r\nThe principal members of the Gun Club, President Barbicane, Major Elphinstone,\r\nthe secretary Joseph T. Maston, and other learned men, held several meetings,\r\nat which the shape and composition of the projectile were discussed, also the\r\nposition and nature of the gun, and the quality and quantity of powder to be\r\nused. It was decided: First, that the projectile should be a shell made of\r\naluminum with a diameter of 108 inches and a thickness of twelve inches to its\r\nwalls; and should weigh 19,250 pounds. Second, that the gun should be a\r\nColumbiad cast in iron, 900 feet long, and run perpendicularly into the earth.\r\nThird, that the charge should contain 400,000 pounds of gun-cotton, which,\r\ngiving out six billions of litres of gas in rear of the projectile, would\r\neasily carry it toward the orb of night.\r\n\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: 83 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Verne, Jules \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Sep 1, 1993 \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":"Verne, Jules,1828-1905 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43211083677853,"sku":"gb-83-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/83_af70c196-0a97-48cc-b11e-4a2d1b9329f7.jpg?v=1671247371"},{"product_id":"frankenstein-or-the-modern-prometheus-gb-84","title":"Frankenstein Or, The Modern Prometheus","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrankenstein; Or, The Modern Prometheus\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nYou will rejoice to hear that no disaster has accompanied the\r\ncommencement of an enterprise which you have regarded with such evil\r\nforebodings.  I arrived here yesterday, and my first task is to assure\r\nmy dear sister of my welfare and increasing confidence in the success\r\nof my undertaking.\r\n\n\r\nI am already far north of London, and as I walk in the streets of\r\nPetersburgh, I feel a cold northern breeze play upon my cheeks, which\r\nbraces my nerves and fills me with delight.  Do you understand this\r\nfeeling?  This breeze, which has travelled from the regions towards\r\nwhich I am advancing, gives me a foretaste of those icy climes.\r\nInspirited by this wind of promise, my daydreams become more fervent\r\nand vivid.  I try in vain to be persuaded that the pole is the seat of\r\nfrost and desolation; it ever presents itself to my imagination as the\r\nregion of beauty and delight.  There, Margaret, the sun is for ever\r\nvisible, its broad disk just skirting the horizon and diffusing a\r\nperpetual splendour.  Therefor with your leave, my sister, I will put\r\nsome trust in preceding navigatorsthere snow and frost are banished;\r\nand, sailing over a calm sea, we may be wafted to a land surpassing in\r\nwonders and in beauty every region hitherto discovered on the habitable\r\nglobe.  Its productions and features may be without example, as the\r\nphenomena of the heavenly bodies undoubtedly are in those undiscovered\r\nsolitudes.  What may not be expected in a country of eternal light?  I\r\nmay there discover the wondrous power which attracts the needle and may\r\nregulate a thousand celestial observations that require only this\r\nvoyage to render their seeming eccentricities consistent for ever.  I\r\nshall satiate my ardent curiosity with the sight of a part of the world\r\nnever before visited, and may tread a land never before imprinted by\r\nthe foot of man. These are my enticements, and they are sufficient to\r\nconquer all fear of danger or death and to induce me to commence this\r\nlaborious voyage with the joy a child feels when he embarks in a little\r\nboat, with his holiday mates, on an expedition of discovery up his\r\nnative river. But supposing all these conjectures to be false, you\r\ncannot contest the inestimable benefit which I shall confer on all\r\nmankind, to the last generation, by discovering a passage near the pole\r\nto those countries, to reach which at present so many months are\r\nrequisite; or by ascertaining the secret of the magnet, which, if at\r\nall possible, can only be effected by an undertaking such as mine.\r\n\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: 84 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Shelley, Mary Wollstonecraft \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Oct 1, 1993 \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":"Shelley, Mary Wollstonecraft,1797-1851 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43211083743389,"sku":"gb-84-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/84_147ca5c4-71f5-496d-8cf0-65903d1e593e.jpg?v=1671247373"},{"product_id":"the-beasts-of-tarzan-gb-85","title":"The Beasts of Tarzan","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Beasts of Tarzan\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nThe entire affair is shrouded in mystery, said DArnot.\r\nI have it on the best of authority that neither the police nor the\r\nspecial agents of the general staff have the faintest conception of how it was\r\naccomplished.

Three miles below them lay the Marjorie\r\nW. herself, quite ready to sail so soon as they should have clambered\r\naboard and swung the long boat to its davits. Presently the attention of every\r\nman was drawn from his dreaming or his gossiping to the northern bank of the\r\nriver. There, screaming at them in a cracked falsetto and with skinny arms\r\noutstretched, stood a strange apparition of a man.\r\n\n\r\nWhen they came close to the shore they saw an emaciated creature with scant\r\nwhite locks tangled and matted. The thin, bent body was naked but for a loin\r\ncloth. Tears were rolling down the sunken pock-marked cheeks. The man jabbered\r\nat them in a strange tongue.\r\n\n\r\nHe did, and in that tongue, brokenly and haltingly, as though it had been many\r\nyears since he had used it, he begged them to take him with them away from this\r\nawful country. Once on board the Marjorie W. the stranger told his\r\nrescuers a pitiful tale of privation, hardships, and torture, extending over a\r\nperiod of ten years. How he happened to have come to Africa he did not tell\r\nthem, leaving them to assume he had forgotten the incidents of his life prior\r\nto the frightful ordeals that had wrecked him mentally and physically. He did\r\nnot even tell them his true name, and so they knew him only as Michael Sabrov,\r\nnor was there any resemblance between this sorry wreck and the virile, though\r\nunprincipled, Alexis Paulvitch of old.\r\n\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: 90 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Burroughs, Edgar Rice \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Nov 1, 1993 \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":"Burroughs, Edgar Rice,1875-1950 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43211084136605,"sku":"gb-90-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/90_31cfd865-ef26-4976-b0bc-1bff0fe7f2d0.jpg?v=1671247385"},{"product_id":"tom-sawyer-abroad-gb-91","title":"Tom Sawyer Abroad","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTom Sawyer Abroad\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nDo you reckon Tom Sawyer was satisfied after all them adventures?

He had lived there as a student, but for\r\ntwenty years and more, since he had been Professor of Philosophy in a Western\r\nuniversity, he had seldom come East except to take a steamer for some foreign\r\nport. Wilson was standing quite still, contemplating with a whimsical smile the\r\nslanting street, with its worn paving, its irregular, gravely colored houses,\r\nand the row of naked trees on which the thin sunlight was still shining. The\r\ngleam of the river at the foot of the hill made him blink a little, not so much\r\nbecause it was too bright as because he found it so pleasant. The few\r\npassers-by glanced at him unconcernedly, and even the children who hurried\r\nalong with their school-bags under their arms seemed to find it perfectly\r\nnatural that a tall brown gentleman should be standing there, looking up\r\nthrough his glasses at the gray housetops.\r\n\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: 94 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Cather, Willa \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Mar 8, 2006 \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":"Cather, Willa,1873-1947 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43211084398749,"sku":"gb-94-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/94_cfa54413-67c3-4d48-b9d5-e36711f1b3ed.jpg?v=1671247393"},{"product_id":"the-prisoner-of-zenda-gb-95","title":"The Prisoner of Zenda","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Prisoner of Zenda\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n      I wonder when in the world youre going to do anything, Rudolf? said my\r\n      brothers wife.\r\n    \n\r\n      My dear Rose, I answered, laying down my egg-spoon, why in the world\r\n      should I do anything?

The series of novels I projected being mainly of the kind\r\ncalled local, they seemed to require a territorial definition of some sort to\r\nlend unity to their scene. Finding that the area of a single county did not\r\nafford a canvas large enough for this purpose, and that there were objections\r\nto an invented name, I disinterred the old one. The press and the public were\r\nkind enough to welcome the fanciful plan, and willingly joined me in the\r\nanachronism of imagining a Wessex population living under Queen\r\nVictoria;a modern Wessex of railways, the penny post, mowing and reaping\r\nmachines, union workhouses, lucifer matches, labourers who could read and\r\nwrite, and National school children. But I believe I am correct in stating\r\nthat, until the existence of this contemporaneous Wessex was announced in the\r\npresent story, in 1874, it had never been heard of, and that the expression,\r\na Wessex peasant, or a Wessex custom, would\r\ntheretofore have been taken to refer to nothing later in date than the Norman\r\nConquest.\r\n\n\r\nI did not anticipate that this application of the word to a modern use would\r\nextend outside the chapters of my own chronicles. But the name was soon taken\r\nup elsewhere as a local designation. The first to do so was the now defunct\r\nExaminer, which, in the impression bearing date July 15, 1876, entitled\r\none of its articles The Wessex Labourer, the article turning out\r\nto be no dissertation on farming during the Heptarchy, but on the modern\r\npeasant of the south-west counties, and his presentation in these stories.\r\n\n\r\nSince then the appellation which I had thought to reserve to the horizons and\r\nlandscapes of a merely realistic dream-country, has become more and more\r\npopular as a practical definition; and the dream-country has, by degrees,\r\nsolidified into a utilitarian region which people can go to, take a house in,\r\nand write to the papers from. But I ask all good and gentle readers to be so\r\nkind as to forget this, and to refuse steadfastly to believe that there are any\r\ninhabitants of a Victorian Wessex outside the pages of this and the companion\r\nvolumes in which they were first discovered.\r\n\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: 107 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Hardy, Thomas \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Feb 1, 1994 \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":"Hardy, Thomas,1840-1928 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43211085480093,"sku":"gb-107-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/107_827cb509-4485-4df3-b385-38e2e204d6a2.jpg?v=1671247418"},{"product_id":"the-return-of-sherlock-holmes-gb-108","title":"The Return of Sherlock Holmes","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Return of Sherlock Holmes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n      It was in the spring of the year 1894 that all London was interested, and\r\n      the fashionable world dismayed, by the murder of the Honourable Ronald\r\n      Adair under most unusual and inexplicable circumstances. The public has\r\n      already learned those particulars of the crime which came out in the\r\n      police investigation, but a good deal was suppressed upon that occasion,\r\n      since the case for the prosecution was so overwhelmingly strong that it\r\n      was not necessary to bring forward all the facts. Only now, at the end of\r\n      nearly ten years, am I allowed to supply those missing links which make up\r\n      the whole of that remarkable chain. The crime was of interest in itself,\r\n      but that interest was as nothing to me compared to the inconceivable\r\n      sequel, which afforded me the greatest shock and surprise of any event in\r\n      my adventurous life. Even now, after this long interval, I find myself\r\n      thrilling as I think of it, and feeling once more that sudden flood of\r\n      joy, amazement, and incredulity which utterly submerged my mind. Let me\r\n      say to that public, which has shown some interest in those glimpses which\r\n      I have occasionally given them of the thoughts and actions of a very\r\n      remarkable man, that they are not to blame me if I have not shared my\r\n      knowledge with them, for I should have considered it my first duty to do\r\n      so, had I not been barred by a positive prohibition from his own lips,\r\n      which was only withdrawn upon the third of last month.\r\n    \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: 108 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Doyle, Arthur Conan \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Mar 8, 2006 \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":"Doyle, Arthur Conan,1859-1930 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43211085611165,"sku":"gb-108-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/108_395a2e81-6d8b-4e63-9b12-a8df057ac765.jpg?v=1671247420"},{"product_id":"tess-of-the-d-urbervilles-a-pure-woman-gb-110","title":"Tess of the d'Urbervilles: A Pure Woman","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTess of the d'Urbervilles: A Pure Woman\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nThis novel being one wherein the great campaign of the heroine begins after an\r\nevent in her experience which has usually been treated as fatal to her part of\r\nprotagonist, or at least as the virtual ending of her enterprises and hopes, it\r\nwas quite contrary to avowed conventions that the public should welcome the\r\nbook and agree with me in holding that there was something more to be said in\r\nfiction than had been said about the shaded side of a well-known catastrophe.\r\nBut the responsive spirit in which Tess of the dUrbervilles has\r\nbeen received by the readers of England and America would seem to prove that\r\nthe plan of laying down a story on the lines of tacit opinion, instead of\r\nmaking it to square with the merely vocal formulae of society, is not\r\naltogether a wrong one, even when exemplified in so unequal and partial an\r\nachievement as the present. For this responsiveness I cannot refrain from\r\nexpressing my thanks; and my regret is that, in a world where one so often\r\nhungers in vain for friendship, where even not to be wilfully misunderstood is\r\nfelt as a kindness, I shall never meet in person these appreciative readers,\r\nmale and female, and shake them by the hand.\r\n\n\r\nI include amongst them the reviewersby far the majoritywho have\r\nso generously welcomed the tale.
