    Excerpt from The Translation of a SavageIT appeared that Armour had made the great mistake of his life. When people came to know, they said that to have done it when sober had shown him possessed of a kind Of maliciousness and cynicism almost pardonable, but to do it when tipsy proved him merely weak and foolish. But the fact is, he was less tipsy at the time than was imagined; and he could have answered to more malice and cynicism than was credited to him. To those who know the world it is not singular that, of the two, Armour was thought to have made the mistake and had the mis fortune, or that people wasted their pity and their scorn upon him alone.

  • No Defense by Gilbert Parker, Fiction, Action & Adventure

    Gilbert Parker

    Hardcover (Aegypan, Jan. 1, 2009)
    "I'm a damned dangerous fellow, there's no doubt about that. Perhaps I'll kill a rebel some day, and then they'll take me to the sessions and the assizes. Well, there's many a worse fate than that, there is! But if I ever kill, I'd like it to be in open fight on the hills like this -- like this, under the bright sun, in the soft morning, with all the moor and valleys still, and the larks singing!"Speaking to himself is young Irishman Dyck Calhoun, as open-hearted, generous and spirited as they come -- but also as intemperate and undisciplined as youth can be. From somewhere within, though, he feels the touch of a wind of change -- something that tells him he may yet make something of himself. As he has this feeling, he hears a voice singing.A girl appears who has been tramping over the hills for hours -- and she looks beautiful, and utterly content in being alone. She wears a gown of dark gold, with little green ribbons here and there. All her beauty has the slender fullness of a quail.And Dyck looks upon her as if lost in a dream.
