Excerpt from The Watcher on the Tower a NovelHere and there a peasant slouched about, clad for the most part in sheep-skins - dirty, unkempt, vile; low of brow, broad of shoulder, tall of stature, physically strong but mentally low as the cattle in the stables a brutish breed, not fit to die for a great country or live for it: a pack of white savages, lower in the scale of humanity than many a black barbarian horde in warmer climes. There was a sullen savageness about these peasants that fitted in well with the lowering sky, the sombre forests, the frozen river, the bleak hills, and bare plains. The women were not so bad as the men - women never are, as a class; they are always a little higher than the men, a little less selfish, a little less animal in their aspirations and desires. Yes, the women of the village of Svir took some of the greyness out of the life of the place; not that they were beautiful or chaste, but rather because they were less ugly than the men, less immoral in ideas and acts.Now and again another class of person, male or female, passed swiftly through or about Svir - Jews or jewesses.No need to ask their race or breeding; their blood was written in their faces - the blood of the most marvellous race of people the world has known or probably ever will know - Jews, the servants of the world and the conquerors thereof - Jews.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Campaign Pictures of the War in South Africa (1899-1900): Letters From the FrontAT two O'clock on the morning of Wednesday, the 6th of the month, the reveille sounded, and the Australians commenced their preparations for the march to join Methuen's army. By 4 am. The mounted rifles led the way out of camp, and the toilsome march over rough and rocky ground com menced. The country was terribly rough as we drove the transports up and over the Orange River, and rougher still in the low kopjes on the other Side. The heat was simply blistering, but the Australians did not seem to mind it to any great extent; they were simply feverish to get on to the front, but they had to hang back and guard the transports.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
