Excerpt from Lost Indian Magic: A Mystery Story of the Red Man as He Lived Before the White Men CameOut in the region of the sage and the pine; in the far reaches of the ever-mysterious desert, the Indian campfires of the long ago heard many a tale well worth the telling. Some there were that have been handed down, through the channel of an unwrit tongue, from age to youth--told, retold, and told again until they come to the hearing of even you and me. Thus the ancient tale of Kay'-yah and the Lost Magic comes to be set down. It may be that the legend loses somewhat in parting with the strange tongue that gave it birth, but the thread on which the crude beads of its adventures are strung runs back even to the first account, and may be of the same spinning.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Tale of Timber TownTimber town lay like a toy city at the bottom of a basin. Its wooden houses, each placed neatly in the middle of a little garden plot, had been painted brightly for the delight of the children. There were whole streets of wooden shops, with verandahs in front of them to shade the real imported goods in their windows; and three wooden churches, freshly painted to suit the tastes of their respective - and respectable - congregations; there Was a wooden Town Hall, painted grey; a wooden Post Othee, painted brown; 3 red college, where boys in white disported upon a green field; a fawn-coloured school, with a playground full of pinafored little girls; and a Red Tape Onice - designed in true Elizabethan style, with cupolas, vanes, fantastic chimney-tops, embayed windows, wondrous parapets - built entirely of wood and painted the colour of Devonshire cream, with grit in the paint to make it look like stone.Along the streets ran a toy tram, pulled by a single horse, which was driven by a man who moved his arms just as if they were real, and who puffed genuine clouds of smoke from his tobacco pipe. Ladies dressed in bright colours walked up and down the trim side-paths, with gaudy sunshades in their hands; knocked at doors, went calling, and looked into the shop windows, just like actual people.It was the game of playing at living. The sky shone brightly overhead; around the town stood hills which no romantic scene painter could have bettered;. The air of the man with water-cart, of the auctioneer's man with bell, and of the people popping in and out of the shops, was the air of those who did these things for love of play-acting on a stage.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
