“Little Man is a vivid and tangible piece of Canada itself. The story opens at the beginning of this century and continues to the present. An intensely human epic, colourful and exciting, it is stark and brutal at times, but at others reveals great tenderness and beauty. Little Man is a powerful and unforgettable chronicle of our own age—boom and depression, flood tide and ebb tide, war and peace and war again. It deserves an important place as a genuine social document, a true and biting commentary on our own times. Little Man is an honest and unflinching account of four amazing decades in the growth of a nation. The scenes move swiftly across Canada and back, to Britain and France and home again. The events are vivid and the characters splendidly alive, for the author describes what he has seen and known and felt...”—from the front flap [Suggest a different description.]

Excerpt from My Little Girl: A NovelGeorge's Island and its dependencies, gives dinners to the e'lile, balls to society in gen eral, receives whom the Colonial Secretary sends to him, and composes long despatches recommending reforms which will make the colony a paradise. He is obliged to write them, to show his zeal, though it must be a fearful bore. And, when they come home, some young clerk in the Colonial Office, who knows as much of Palmiste as of Timbuctoo, annotates the labored thoughts of the. Experienced statesman, and snubs him. This done, according to rule, the despatches are put in a book, and carefully bound up to be preserved forever. There are now so many of these hapless children of thought, smothered as soon as born, and kept as calf-bound mummies in Downing Street, that a few years since they were compelled to move them all to the cellars. Their weight was pressing out and crushing down the walls; and it was feared that their presence, longer contin ued, might possibly result in the demolition of the whole fabric. Shades of departed governors, pensionless wanderers by Brigh ton sands, consider with gratitude the Nemesis that waits on the contempt of your labors!About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
