Excerpt from Bertha's Earl, Vol. 2 of 3: A NovelAlmost immediately in front of the house is a piece of ornamental water, termed a small lake or a large pond according to the taste and courtesy of the beholder. On the silver su rface a couple of swans float tranquilly. From the tree-tops comes the cawing of rocks, with harsh but cheerful sound break ing the stillness. The distant coo of a turtle dove falls softly on the listener's ear, whilst a puff of blue smoke rising from a gardener's cottage seems to be the only sign of neigh bouring human life in this ancestral solitude.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
