About the Book In historical fiction the plot is set in the past, and pays attention to the manners, social conditions and other details of the period portrayed. Some authors choose to include famous historical figures in their fictional plots, so that audiences can imagine how those individuals might have responded to the plots and environments established by the author. The Western literary component of this genre is founded in the early 19th century works of such authors as Sir Walter Scott, Honoré de Balzac, James Fenimore Cooper, and Leo Tolstoy. Also in this Book Our offering includes memoirs, or collections of memories that individuals have written about moments or events, both public or private, that took place in their lives. While the assertions made in these works are generally taken to be factual, the biases or perspectives of the authors are often present. Historically, memoirs have been defined as a subcategory of biography or autobiography, however the genre is differentiated in form, since it presents a narrower focus. While a biography or autobiography tells the story "of a life", a memoir generally tells the story "from a life", tending to emphasize touchstone events and turning points in the author's life experience.

Excerpt from The Master and His Servant: Comparative Outline Sketches of the Redeemer of Mankind, and the Emancipator of a Race; With Relative Antecedent and Subsequent Events and Persons Compared; Showing the Most Wonderful and Pleasing Similitudes Ever Recorded in the History of MankindA religious writer of note says: Down deep in our nature there exists a tendency to seek among all inter esting objects points of resemblance. This tendency to metaphor, and the universal delight in parables, com parisons, and figures of speech, are no mere freaks of man's fancy. They have their formation in the mind and method of Deity.Referring to Christ, the late Joseph Parker, of Lon don, said All things to him were suggestive, significant, symbolic. Christ did not think it sacrilegious to com pare spiritual with natural things. At one time he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God, and with what comparison shall we compare it He then compared it to the marriage of a king's son. If Christ made such comparisons should it be thought a thing in credible if comparisons be made between the Head of the kingdom of heaven and the Chief Magistrate of a great nation at the most interesting and critical time of its existence? Parker also said: The power of com parison is to be cherished and developed. Compare your Savior to all things beautiful, noble, and grand.Among Old Testament characters there are many striking types of Christ, whose lives, from this stand point, are a most interesting study. Joseph, Moses, David, and Jonah are good illustrations. In choosing a modern character whose life has points of similitude to that of Christ, the world is challenged to furnish a better one than that of Abraham Lincoln.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
