DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Guy Rivers, the Outlaw: A Tale of Georgia By what right do you ask this question was the hurried and unhesitating response of the person so addressed. You are impertinent l Softly, softly, young sir. Be not rash, and let me recommend that you be more choice in the adoption of your epithets. Impertinent is an ugly word between gentlemen of our habit. Touching my right to ask this or that question of young men who lose their way, that's neither here nor there, and is important in no way. But, I take it, I shall have some right in this matter, seeing, young sir, that you are upon a turnpike, and I am the gate-keeper who must take the toll. A sarcastic smile passed over the lips of the man as he uttered the sentence, which was as suddenly succeeded, however. By an expression of gravity, partaking of an air of the profound est business. The traveller surveyed him for a moment before he replied, as if to ascertain in what point of view properly to understand his conduct.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn William Gilmore Simms' novel 'Guy Rivers: A Tale of Georgia,' readers are transported to the antebellum South through the riveting story of Guy Rivers, a reckless gambler and outlaw who finds himself embroiled in love, betrayal, and violence. Simms' literary style is heavily influenced by Gothic romanticism, with a focus on moral dilemmas and societal issues. Set against the backdrop of Georgia, the novel's vivid descriptions and intricate character developments make it a standout piece of Southern literature. Simms crafts a tale that delves into the complexities of human nature and the consequences of one's actions in a time of societal upheaval. The novel not only provides a thrilling narrative but also offers a commentary on the changing landscape of the South during that era. William Gilmore Simms, known as the 'Southern Hawthorne,' draws on his own experiences growing up in the South to authentically depict the cultural and historical nuances present in 'Guy Rivers.' His deep understanding of Southern society and his penchant for storytelling shine through in this captivating work. I highly recommend 'Guy Rivers: A Tale of Georgia' to readers interested in Southern literature, gothic storytelling, and explorations of morality and human nature. Simms' novel is a masterful blend of adventure, romance, and social commentary that will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on anyone who delves into its pages.
