Books with author Edward E. Hale

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 Atlantic Tales: A Collection of Stories From the Atlantic MonthlyOh, the fun we had the next morning in shaving his beard to my pattern, cutting his hair to match mine, and teaching him how to wear and how to take off gold-bowed Spectacles! Really, they were electro-plate and the glass was plain (for the poor fellow's eyes were excellent). Then in four suc cessive afternoons I taught him four speeches. I had found these would be quite enough for the supernumerary-sepoy line of life, and it was well for me they were. For though he was good-natured, he was very shiftless, and it was, as our national proverb says, like pulling teeth to teach him. But at the end of the next week he could say, with quite my easy and frisky_air, I. Very well, thank you. And you?

Excerpt from My Friend the BossIT is always interesting to see how rich men spend their money. It often seems as if they took more pleasure in earning it than in spending it. Sometimes it seems as if they did not know how to spend it when it was earned.In the best days of Athens, and in some of the days which were not the best, the rich men of that city fairly vied with each other in showing how they could expend large sums in its public service. Happily for us, we see such people now, - as when a man spends largely to improve the music of a city, or a woman to improve its schools.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Ten Times One Is Ten: And Other StoriesHE story of Ten Times One and the other sketches and stories in this volume belong together. The reader will find in its place the briefest possible account of the life of Frederic William Greenleaf, the Harry Wadsworth of that book.With no expectation of mine, the parable of the story took form immediately in actual life. Miss Ella Elizabeth Russell, of New York, in the end of May, 1870, read this story to a class of boys whom she met every Sunday, in a Sunday School. They were of different ages from thirteen to seventeen. She writes of them, they felt that they were too old to go to any Mission School, but the idea of a Club to meet Sunday afternoons seemed a more grown-up affair. I had read them the story of Harry Wadsworth and as the class was ten in number, they decided to call themselves the Harry Wadsworth Helpers, to adopt the Four Mottoes and to see what they could do to lend a hand.The boys now are men, and though widely scattered are nearly all doing well. Only yester day I received a letter from one who has been for several years in the Black Hills.I need not say that I was greatly interested when I heard from Miss Russell that the suggestion of the book had taken concrete form: but I had never thought of this in writing it. As the reader will see if he will turn to the introduction of the first edition of the story, I was simply trying, in an invented example, to show to young people the extent and the rapidity by which the effort of one man extends itself in larger and larger circles if he really looks out and not in and is determined to lend a hand. But some who read were more ready than I had supposed any one would be to try the experiment. The nine people who were at that time nearest to me in the work Of life were fond of calling themselves, with me, the original ten, and I was proud that they were. I like to name them here. They were my wife; my brother Nathan; Caroline Letitia Tallant, whom the reader will find named as Irene in the story called Neither Scrip nor Money John Williams, at that time the assistant minister of our church; Helen Frances Kimball; Benjamin Kimball, to whose suggestion, more than once repeated, the writing of the story was due; Martha H. Brooks; Edward Hale Green leaf, the son of Harry Wadsworth; and my daugh ter, Ellen Day Hale. If we had the original manuscript of the book I suppose we should find the handwriting of each of these ladies, all of whom worked with me in my study, in the charities of the church, or in other ways. The gentlemen also, in one way or another, in the Sunday School.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
