    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Jan. 31, 2018)
    Excerpt from Married Beneath Him: A NovelI mean our forefathers, J ack - our ancestors. They crossed this fossé upon the naked bodies of their slain; they had only clubs for the most part, while they, upon the rampart there, were cased in armor, and had swords and spears. They say that thirty thousand Britons perished in this one trench, only a few hundreds in the next, and not one lived to reach the top of the mound. And yet the place is not a hundred and fifty yards away, and was protected by no other defence than we see now. Doesn't that seem strange, Jack?About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Milly was fairly enchanted with him, and would have shown her approbation openly but for the wicked raillery in which George had indulged at breakfast time. The new arrival had said something to interest or amuse every member of the party; not exclusive of little Frankie, to whom he told a dreadful ghost story, of how he was visited by a short but expansive being all in white. And what do you think it was?' he inquired, after the thrilling narra tive.Well; I dare say it was only a nightmare,' said Frankie made sceptical by the other's laughing eye.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
