Ours is a little town in that part of the country called the West by those who live east of the Alleghanies, and referred to lovingly as "back East" by those who dwell west of the Rockies. It is a country town where, as the song goes, "you know everybody and they all know you," and the country newspaper office is the social clearing-house. When a man has published a paper in a country community for many years, he knows his town and its people, their strength and their weakness, their joys and their sorrows, their failings and their prosperity—or if he does not know these things, he is on the road to failure, for this knowledge must be the spirit of his paper. The country editor and his reporters sooner or later pass upon everything that interests their town.

Excerpt from Memoir of John Codman, D. DTo give to the world a record of the virtues and labors of the New England clergy, is one of the best methods of perpetuating the blessings with which they have enriched us. Whenever a min ister has been eminent in the cause of Christ, it becomes an imperative duty to hold his character and services in grateful remembrance. If, after his death, his worth is commemorated, and his life and character are presented to the world, he is still a preacher of righteousness on the earth, while he mingles in the worship above, and praises' his Redeemer in the upper temple, not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Arleanna is a young warrior plainswoman that must undertake a perilous journey that will take her from her ancestral home across the breadth of her kingdom. Will she be able to warn the crowned prince of the Realm about the huge invading army of men from the east? Treachery, war, and personal tragedy are just a few of the obstacles that face the young woman. Along the way, she learns just how far reaching a father's love truly can be.

Deep in the walls of a witches' cottage lays an ancient magical kitchen. Dangling over that kitchen's cauldron, pinched between the fingers of two witches, is a toad. And the Toad has no idea how she got there, and no memory of even her name. All she knows is she doesn't think she was always a Toad, or that she's ever been here before. Determined to recover her memories she sets out on a journey to the oracle, and along the way picks up a rag-tag team of friends: an iron-handed imp, a carnivorous fairy, and a few friendly locals.But the Kitchen won't make it easy. It is pitch black, infinite, and impossible to navigate, a living maze. Hiding in dark corners are beastly, starving things. Worse yet are the Witches themselves, who have sent a procession of horrific, deadly monsters on her trail. With some courage and wisdom, the Toad just might find herself yet-and with that knowledge, the power to defeat the mighty Witches. Filled with forty stunning pencil illustrations from the author, the Witches' Kitchen is a rich, well-imagined fantasy setting unlike any other.
