The rising sun burned its way through a low-lying mist that hid the river, and flashed its search-light rays over the sleeping city. The blackened tops of the tall stacks caught the signal, and answered in belching clouds of gray steam that turned to gold as they floated upwards in the morning air. The long rows of the many-eyed tenements cresting the hill blinked in the dazzling light, threw wide their shutters, and waved curling smoke flags from countless chimneys. Narrow, silent alleys awoke. Doors opened and shut. Single figures swinging dinnerpails, and groups of girls with baskets, hurried to and fro. The rumbling of carts was heard and shrill street cries. Suddenly the molten ball swung clear of the purple haze and flooded the city with tremulous light.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.

Francis Hopkinson Smith was an author, artist, world traveler, and the engineer who built the foundation for the Statue of Liberty. In his personal travelog, "A White Umbrella in Mexico", Smith endeavored to capture, through drawings and verbal vignettes, the surface of a place in time which he knew to be disappearing in the unstoppable progression of culture, politics, technology, and developing world scene. Smith invites you to view this world through his perspective as painter and idler.
