    Paperback (Trieste Publishing, Aug. 19, 2017)
    Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

    Paperback (Leopold Classic Library, Oct. 13, 2015)
    Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, Jan. 17, 2018)
    Excerpt from In the Three ZonesIn this town were many girls with pretty faces there, under that cold, concise sky of the North, they grew up; their intellects preternaturally acute, their nervous systems strung to breaking pitch, their physical growth so backward that at twenty their figures would be flat. We were intimate with them in a mental fellowship. Not that we boys of twenty did not have our prefer ences, but they were preferences of mere companionship; so that the magnanimous confidence of English America was justified; and anyone of us could be alone with her he preferred from morn to midnight, if he chose, and no one be the wiser or the worse. But there was one exceptional girl in B Althea Hardy. Her father was a rich ship builder; and his father, a sea-captain, had married her grandmother in Catania, island of Sicily. With Althea Hardy, I think, I was in love.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1896 edition. Excerpt: ... the Bostonians. Some have been pleased to say, that were I in a state to wed, they do believe that she would not be displeased with my addresses! As this is without any ground but groundless conjectures, so I hope I shall never be in a capacity to make a tryal of it." And Miles did wink portentously. "Well, what of Mistress Green?" I pressed him on. "She hath the bashfulness of the damsell, the fidelity of the wife, and the gentleness of the widow. As the poet sings: "'Is she a Maid?--What Man can answer that, Or widow?--No.--What then?--I know not what. Saint-like she looks; a Syren if she sing: Her Eyes are stars; Her Mind is everything.' Truth, 'tis her mind is the habitation of the Graces, the residence of the Muses, and the general rendezvous of all the Vertues. And as to the question, What is she? She is party per pale, as the lawyers speak; that is, half a wife and half a widow." "Miles," said I, "I only wonder that you leave the town." "Moore," said Miles, with a twinkle, "ye'll not wonder when ye hear the law. D'ye know this Colony's the first o' Christian countries (unless ye call the Scots one) to provide for the relief of marital misery by divorce? And there is one Mistress Huitt--do ye remember her?" I nodded. "--That sacrilegious General Court o' theirs hath but just declared that 'having not heard from her late husband, Thomas Huitt, for eight years and better, she is at liberty to marry again, as God shall grant her opportunity.'" "Miles," I answered gravely, "let us e'en go to Magunco." Then I asked him what he had heard or found of Mistress Clerke. Now would any one not believe, from this last talk, to know the man? But see.
