    Excerpt from A Traveler From Altruria: RomanceYes, he said, in very good English, but with an accent new to me I bought two. He gave them to me and I passed them to our hotel porter, who was waiting there with the baggage cart. Then I proposed that we should walk across the meadow to the house, which is a quarter of a mile or so from the station. We started, but he stopped suddenly and looked back over 1118 shoulder. Oh, you needn't be troubled about your trunks, I said. The porter will get them to the house all right. They'll be in your room by the time we get there.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, Sept. 18, 2017)
    Excerpt from A Pair of Patient LoversI was sometimes disappointed in Mrs. March's mysteries when I came up close to them; but I was always willing to take them on trust; and I submitted to the postponement of a solution in this case with more than my usual faith. She found time, before Mr. Glendenning reappeared, to ask me if I had no ticed a mother and daughter on the boat, the mother evidently an invalid, and the daughter very devoted, and both decidedly ladies; and when I said, No. Why? She answered, Oh, nothing, and that she would tell me. Then She drove me away, and we did not meet till I found her in our state-room just before the terrible mid-day meal they used to give you on the Corinthian, and called dinner.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original.

Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers.

  • Their Wedding Journey: With an Additional Chapter on Niagara Revisited, Illustrated by Augustus Hoppin

    W. D. Howells

    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, March 21, 2018)
    Excerpt from Their Wedding Journey: With an Additional Chapter on Niagara Revisited, Illustrated by Augustus HoppinHey first met in Boston, but the match was made in Europe, where they afterwards saw each other; Whither, indeed, he followed her; and there the match was also broken Off. Why it was broken Off, and Why it was renewed after a lapse of years, is part of quite a long love story, Which I do not think myself qualified to rehearse, distrusting my fitness for a sustained or involved narration; though I am persuaded that a skillful romancer could turn the courtship of Basil and Isabel March to excellent account. Fortunately for me, however, in attempting to tell the reader of the wedding journey of a newly married couple, no longer very young, to be sure, but still fresh in the light of their love, I shall have nothing to do but to talk of some ordinary traits of American life as these appeared to them, to speak a little of well-known and easily accessible places, to present now a bit of land scape and now a sketch of character.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Feb. 1, 2018)
    Excerpt from My Year in a Log CabinHe had a passion for nature as tender and genuine and as deeply moralized as that Of the English poets, by whom it had been nourished; and he taught us chil dren all that he felt for the woods and fields and Open skies; all our walks had led into them and under them. It was the fond dream of his boys to realize the trials and privations which he had painted for them in such rosy hues, and even if the only clap-boarded dwelling on the property had not been occupied by the miller, we should have disdained it for the log-cabin in which we took up our home till we could build a new house.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
