  • The Spirit of an Illinois Town, and the Little Renault: Two Stories of Illinois at Different Periods

    Mary Hartwell Catherwood

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Feb. 8, 2019)
    Excerpt from The Spirit of an Illinois Town, and the Little Renault: Two Stories of Illinois at Different PeriodsFurther justice had been done the Potts watomies, and their forerunner in path-mak ing, the bufialo, by naming the town Trail City. Long gaps of vacant lots still showed between buildings. Shopping women had to walk half a mile from the north side to the south side, matching samples. It was the favorite joke of merchants in this direction to bid their customers, Give us a call on your way to Chicago. Some still thought the supremacy of trade might be wrested from Main Street on the south side, but others were wavering toward that thorough fare. On every hand were scattering houses, from mansions having their own gas, and their water propelled by gayly painted Wind mills, to the rudest shelters of pine, in which lot-owners tabernacled until they could do better; every man's first care being to secure what promised to be the most valu able location he could command.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • The Queen of the Swamp: And Other Plain Americans

    Mary Hartwell Catherwood

    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.

  • Lazarre With Illustrations by AndrĂ© Castaigne

    Mary Hartwell Catherwood

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Jan. 11, 2019)
    Excerpt from Lazarre With Illustrations by André CastaigneThough the boy was dressed like a plain French citizen of that year, 1795, and his knee breeches betrayed shrunken calves, and his sleeves, wrists that were swollen as with tumors, Eagle accepted him as her equal. His fine wavy hair was of a chest nut color, and his hands and feet were small. His features were perfect as her own. But while life played unceasingly in vivid expression across her face, his muscles never moved. The hazel eyes, bluish around their iris rims, took cognizance of nothing. His left eyebrow had been parted by a cut now healed and forming its permanent scar.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
