  • Courtship and Marriage and the Gentle Art of Home-Making

    Annie S. Swan

    Paperback (Omnia Veritas Ltd, Aug. 10, 2015)
    Every man goes to woo in his own way, and the woman he woos is apt to think it the best way in the world; it would be superfluous for a mere outsider to criticise it. This study of human nature is my business, and it appears to me that the world is very much as it was-that Eden is still possible to those who are fit for it; and it is beyond question that love, courtship, and marriage are words to conjure with in the garden of youth, and that a love-story has yet the power to charm even sober men and women of middle age, for whom romance is mistakenly supposed to be over.
  • Sheila

    Annie S. Swan

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Dec. 2, 2017)
    Excerpt from SheilaShe went through the Wide Open window on to the little lawn like an arrow, Tory tumbling and rolling on the top of her, chewing her sash ribbons and snapping at her toes. They were both babies, and the one enjoyed the fun as much as the other. Sheila Murray, the widow's one child, and therefore boundlessly precious, seemed to bear a charmed life. She was filled with frolic and fun, and was never a moment still from the time the big hazel eyes opened in the morning till the sleepy lids drooped over them at night. But though she had been in perils oft, and had been nearly drowned in the swift Tay more than once, her escapes neither sobered nor frightened her. She did not even know the meaning of fear.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    Kirsty; she's a winsome, bonnie cratur. I've bidden aside her noo for twa year an' mair, an' I never saw but a smile on her face.' 'A weel, maybe no; but I like folk that can girn whiles, it shows they hae some gumption,' said Kirsty Paterson. 'But I'se warrant ye John got the wrang side o' her whiles as weel's ither folk's men.' 'I dinna think that, Kirsty,' said Jenny, shaking her head; 'she's fell fond o'him tae. Eh, I houp she'll get through, for his sake as weel's her ain. He's a by-ordinar' fine man. As I say whiles to Sandy, he hasna a brither.' 'A weel, gie me a man that disna set hissel' up for better nor his neebors,' maintained Kirsty stoutly. 'I'm sure it wasna at Auchtermairnie he got his graun' ideas, for auld John Bethune's a canny man, an' jist like his neebors. He kens the taste o' Jean Brunton's ale, I'll warrant ye, though John in-by pertends that he wadna fyle his lips wi't. But I say,' she added, lowering her voice, 'wha's in-by forby the doctor; onybody frae Auchtermairnie?' Jenny Scott shook her head. 'Na, it's no Shoosan Bethune that'll come to Katie Law in her trouble. She's never been i' the Star that I ken o' sin Katie cam' .' 'No, she has not,' said Kirsty, with quiet relish. 'An' my guid-brither's' sister's' man i' Kennoway telt me that Shoosan said she wad never darken their door while she leeved. And when he telt me, I jist says, says I, whaur did thae Bethunes get their pride? Though Katie Law was only a bit servant lassie, was she no' as guid as them? Nae doot they hae been in Auchtermairnie verra near as lang as the Laird's folk hae been in Ba'foor. But what aboot that? They're nae better nor wark folk. I canna bide sic pride.'
