DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Editors of the Saintsbury Memorial Volume have been encouraged by the welcome which that book received to make a final gathering of George Saintbury's writings. From a score of different sources they have chosen essays and papers that have lain uncollected, with their themes ranging from Captain Marryat to Erasmus, from Rosetti to Xenephon, from Swinburne to Balzac's early pot boilers. Included is an entrancing study of the literary associations of the city of Bath; and the editors have followed Saintbury's own example by collecting a Scrap Book more than thirty shorter notes and jeux d'esprit on all kinds of subjects: wigs, sensation novelists, Drummond and Ben Jonson, George Sand, compulsory Greek at Oxford, Shakespeare and Welsh, Laurence Sterne tittle-tattle, Marcel Proust, and much else in true Saintsburian vein.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Elizabeth Schuyler: A Story of Old New York Revolution was seething in New York as well as Massachusetts and Virginia and throughout the country for several years before the war began for the independence of the thirteen colonies. Unjust decrees of despotic governors were stoutly resisted. When the stamp act was repealed the Sons of Lib etty erected a liberty pole, which served as the bat tle ground when British soldiers attempted to de stroy it. Fresh impositions, new outrages on the part of the British government aroused the peo ple, and the Sons of Liberty shouted defiance to measures which curtailed their rights. Handbills were circulated and John Lamb was chosen to pre side over a public meeting in the Fields. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Have you made a choice, Miss Sophia?" inclining his head toward the young lady who sat in the farther comer of the carriage. "I am between the two horns of a dilemma, your Excellency," Miss Boylston answered, laughingly. "My sympathies run with the Virginian; but I confess my judgment leans toward the English horse. So you see I am at contraries whether to risk my judgment or my sentiments, for I should be vastly sorry to find either amiss." "Then back your sentiments," the Governor urged in good humour, "for 'tis a common experience that a young lady's most trustworthy guide is her heart."
