  • The Pacha of Many Tales: With Illustrations

    Marryat Marryat

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, April 23, 2017)
    Excerpt from The Pacha of Many Tales: With IllustrationsAnd as the world spins round, the why is of little moment. The honors are bequeathed, but not the good or the evil deeds, or the talents by which they were obtained. In the latter we have but a life interest, for the entail is cut 05 by death. Aristocracy in all its varieties is as necessary for the well binding of society as the divers grades between the general and the common soldier are essential in the field. Never then inquire why this or that man has been raised above his fellows; but, each night as you retire to bed, thank Heaven that you are not a king.And, if I may digress, there is one badge of honor in our country which I never contemplate without serious reflection rising in my mind: it is the bloody hand in the dexter chief of a baronet - now often worn, I grant, by those who, per haps, during their whole lives, have never raised their hands in anger. But my thoughts have returned to days of yore the ironed days of ironed men, when it was the symbol of faithful service in the field - when it really was bestowed upon the hand imbrued in blood; and I have meditated whether that hand, displayed with exultation in this world.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • The Settlers in Canada

    Marryat Marryat

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, June 9, 2017)
    Excerpt from The Settlers in CanadaIT was in the year 1794, that an English family went out to settle in Canada. This province had been surrendered to us by the French, who first colonised it, more than thirty years previous to the year I have mentioned. It must, however, be recollected, that to emigrate and settle in Canada was, at that time, a very different affair to what it is now. The difficulty of transport, and the dangers incurred, were much greater, for there were no steamboats to stem the currents and the rapids of the rivers; the Indians were still residing in Upper and many portions of Lower Canada, and the country was infested with wild animals of every description - some useful, but many dangerous moreover, the Europeans were fewer in number, and the major portion of them were French, who were not pleased at the country having been conquered by the English. It is true that a great many English settlers had arrived, and had settled upon different farms; but as the French settlers had already possession of all the best land in Lower Canada, these new settlers were obliged to go into or toward Upper Canada, where, although the land was better, the distance from Quebec and Montreal, and other populous parts, was much greater, and they were left almost wholly to their own resources, and almost without protection. I mention all this,~ because things are so very different at present: and now I shall state the cause which induced this family to leave their home, and run the risk and dangers which they did.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    Excerpt from The Mission: Or, Scenes in Africa, Written for Young PeopleAfter pacing for some time, he sat down in an easy chair and remained in deep thought, holding the newspaper in both his hands.This old gentleman's name was Sir Charles Wilmot. He had in early life gone out to India as a writer, and after remaining there for a few years, during which he had amassed a handsome fortune, was advised to leave the country for a time on account of his health. He returned to England on furlough, and had not been there more than six months when the death, without issue, of his eldest brother, Sir Henry Wilmot, put him in possession of the entailed estates and of the baronetcy.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
