  • Students' Songs: Comprising the Newest and Most Popular College Songs

    William Henry Hills

    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, Dec. 25, 2017)
    Excerpt from Students' Songs: Comprising the Newest and Most Popular College SongsBefore the publication n of college-music including the songs which have had their origin and become popular within the last ten or fifteen years. All existing collections were out of date. The new songs, of which a great number had sprung into life, were nowhere to be found in print. They were known to comparatively few; and it was inevitable that. Unless they were put in permanent form, they would soon be forgotten, and lost forever.The first edition of Students' Songs was prepared in 1880, with a view to preserving these songs, and making them accessible to all. The success of the book was immediate. The demand exceeded the supply, and the sale of the whole edition of six thousand copies in less than four months showed how urgently the need of some such collection had been felt. The second edition of Students' Songs was in reality an entirely new book. It contained none of the songs comprised in the first edition, but was made up of other wholly new songs, equal in merit and popularity. Like its predecessor, it had a most remarkable sale. The whole edition of five thousand copies was speedily exhausted; and for over a year - during which the book was out of print, owing to the inability of the compiler, through pressure of other duties, to prepare a new edition - the demand continued unabated.The third edition of Students' Songs, published in May, 1883, comprised nearly all the songs of both the first and second editions, together with more than twenty pages of wholly new music, including all the latzst college songs of the day. In less than Six months the edition of five thousand copies was exhausted, and a new edition, in which the plates were revised and corrected, was required. Since then thirty thousand copies of the book have been disposed of; and now, in May, 1886, still another edition of five thousand copies has been printed to supply the unabated demand for these jolly and unique songs, which have done so much to make college and home life more happy. Most of the songs which the book contains are copyrighted, and to be found in no other collection.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • Nature

    William Henry Davies

    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, Jan. 19, 2018)
    Excerpt from NatureNo other sound than bats' wings, or one note That unawares escapes a sleeping bird; When I stand there in that deep, silent hour, Thoughts far too great to shape and utter rise; Then do I feel, could I maintain that mood, I would ere long grow more than human wise.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • Old Leaves, Gathered From Household Words

    William Henry Wills

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Jan. 17, 2018)
    Excerpt from Old Leaves, Gathered From Household WordsIn a few minutes, and without any preparation, a great stir began at one end Of this hall, and a long train of private per formers, in the highest state of excitement, poured in, getting up, on an immense scale, the first scene in the Miller and his Men. Each had a sack on his back; each bent under its weight; and the bare sight of these sacks, as if by magic, changed all the readers, all the talkers, all the wanderers, all the liers-down, all the coffee-drinkers, into a colony of human ants.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
