    John Farrow

    Paperback (Severn House Publishers, May 5, 2020)
    Getting inside is easy; the stress comes in getting out clean. A case of breaking and entering escalates after Émile Cinq-Mars transfers from the Night Patrol. Montreal, 1975. Detective Émile Cinq-Mars is transferring from the Night Patrol – the notoriously tough department of officers in charge of watching over the city as it sleeps – to the day shift. His old superior has seen to it that he’s assigned to partner Yves Giroux, another ex-Night Patrol detective some say isn’t on the ‘up and up’. Getting in a house is easy for thief Quinn Tanner. The stress comes in getting out clean. On finding her getaway driver dead after her latest heist, she goes underground. For his first case on the day shift, Émile is sent to the property that Quinn has just visited, and their paths are set to cross. But has she stolen something more valuable than she realizes . . . and who is hunting for her now?
  • The Life of William Penn: With a Sketch of Early History of Pennsylvania

    John Frost

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Jan. 11, 2018)
    Excerpt from The Life of William Penn: With a Sketch of Early History of PennsylvaniaThe following Memoir is chiefly taken from eu anonymous work published in London se tyeral years since. For the alterations and additions made by myself, 1 have relied prin cipaflly on the authority of Graham and Proud. The Sketch of the early histoiiy or penn sylvania, is part of a work commenced some years since for the use of schools, but never completed. I thought that it would make an appropriate introduction to the life of the great Founder of Pennsylvania, as it furnishes the reader with the leading facts in the history of the State antecedent to the arrival of Penn; and brings the narrative down to the period of that important and auspicious event.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • The Life of William Penn, the Founder of Pennsylvania: With Numerous Illustrative Anecdotes and Embellishments

    John Frost

    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, March 15, 2018)
    Excerpt from The Life of William Penn, the Founder of Pennsylvania: With Numerous Illustrative Anecdotes and EmbellishmentsThe work is submitted to the public in the hope that Friends as well as others will admit the desire at least of the author to do full justice to one. In true respect for whom, he yields to no man. The reader would smile were a list produced of all the works to which reference has been had in preparing this little volume; and the aid which has been derived from Clarkson and Watson is too obvious to need mention, except in the form of acknowledgment. We indulge the h0pe that this effort may prompt some person of leisure, and habits of research, to prepare what has not yet been written, a full biography of William Penn, that his position in the history of our State, and among the statesmen of his era, may be correctly exhibited, before his correspondence and other private papers and me morials have passed beyond the reach of the historian. Much is now locked up in England, which those in whose custody it remains, owe it to the world to open to the biographer.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    Paperback (Ulan Press, Aug. 31, 2012)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. 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.
