  • Funny Stories: Told by the Soldiers; Pranks, Jokes and Laughable Affairs of Our Boys and Their Allies in the Great War; The Victories in Their Cheerful Moments

    Carleton B. Case

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Feb. 9, 2017)
    Excerpt from Funny Stories: Told by the Soldiers; Pranks, Jokes and Laughable Affairs of Our Boys and Their Allies in the Great War; The Victories in Their Cheerful MomentsNow that the dread of awful war has passed with the coming of welcome peace, we can turn our minds with renewed cheerfulness to the merry side of the great worlds conflict and enjoy with our boys the funny things they saw and did and said while over there.The comedy side of the war has been quickly seen and readily interpreted by the worlds great writers, as well as by the very officers and men, in all departments of the service, who themselves participated in both the serious and the frivolous affairs of warfare as developed day by day.It is the humorous experiences of which these warriors and writers have told us in speech and print that we have sought to gather into one volume for the edification and delectation of a humor-loving public. Enough and too much has been told of the horrors of war. To hear the pleasanter side, the merry doings of our soldiers and their allies, the victorious hosts of freedom, is a welcome relief to war-weary hearts, freed now, and forever, from the dire dread of the awfulness of modern laughter. So this collection of funny stories has come into being; its mission to cheer us all with the merry tales told by and about our conquering soldiers.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • Tales and Stories of Ireland

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Jan. 19, 2018)
    Excerpt from Tales and Stories of IrelandCarnmore was one of those small villages that are to be found in the outskirts of many parishes in Ireland, whose distinct boundaries are lost in the contiguous mountain-wastes. This was situated at the foot of a deep gorge or pass, overhung by two bleak hills, from the naked sides of which the storm swept over it, without discomposing the peaceful little nook of cabins that stood below. About a furlong farther down were two or three farm-houses, inhabited by a family named Cassidy -men of simple, inoffensive manners, and cousi derable wealth. They were, however, acute and wise in their generation - intelligent cattle-dealers, on whom it would have been a matter of some difficulty to impose an unsound horse, or a cow older than was intimated by her horn-rings, even.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
