Books with author Don Scribner

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Laconia or Legends of the White Mountains and Merry Meeting BayThe principal scenes in the following legends are based for the most part on authenticated historical facts. The chief aim of the author has been to exhibit Nature in her wildest and most startling developments as well as in her tamer and more civilized features. All nations, whether civilized or savage, have some choice spirits who excel their fellows in natural and intrinsic worth and goodness, as well as others of a character diametrically the opposite. Yet, as a whole, every nation seems to exhibit the same general traits of Oppression, cruelty, and injustice, especially when holding another and a feebler race under its despotic sway.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
