We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Excerpt from National Rhymes of the NurseryBrothers Grimm founded modern folklore, it has required considerable courage to approach nursery songs and nursery tales in any but a spirit of the severest "scientism," which I presume to be the proper form for the method of those who call themselves "scientists." We have not only had investigations - some of them by no means unfruitful or uninteresting investigations - into certain things which are, or may be, the originals of these artless compositions in history or in popular manners. We have not only had some of their queer verbal jingles twisted back again into what may have been an articulate and authentic meaning. I do not know that many of them have been made out to be sun-myths; but that yesterday popular, to-day rather discredited, system of exposition is very evidently as applicable to them as to anything else. The older variety of mystical and moral interpretation having gone out of fashion before they had emerged from the contempt of the learned, it has not been much applied to them, though the temptation is great, for, as King Charles observes in "Woodstock," most things in the world remind one of the tales of Mother Goose.But the most special attentions that nursery rhymes have received have, perhaps, taken the form of the elaborate and ingenious divisions attempted by Halliwell and others. Indeed, something of the kind has been so common that the absence here of anything similar may excite some surprise, and look like disrespect to a scientific age. The omission, however, is designed, and a reason or two may be rendered for it. Halliwell (to take the most generally known instance) has no less than seventeen compartments in which he stows remorselessly these "things that are old and pretty," to apply to them a phrase that Lamb loved.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This charming collector copy of Fairview Boys at Lighthouse Cove or Carried Out to Sea, by Frederick Gordon, is sixth in the Fairview Boys Series. This first edition three-color cloth hard cover printed by Charles E. Graham & Co., New York, 1914, has an intact (rare) dust jacket printed in red and black. While the dust jacket has some general wear with chipping on the ends of the spine and corners from age and shelf wear, the wording and colors are unaffected and true to brightness considering age and condition. The actual yellow/tan cloth hard is a little wavy on the front due to the age and materials of construction. The boy scout scene depicted on the front of the cover is a replica of dust jacket; however, it is in blue, red and black. The 126 page are slightly tanned from age but are not brittle. The pages include two advertisements at the end for The Tommy Trippertrots Series. 100% of sale benefits non-profit Friends of the Camarillo Library Bookstore.
