Doom Castle: A Romance

(Forgotten Books, June 28, 2012)
It was an afternoon in autumn, with a sound of wintry breakers on the shore, the tall woods coppercolour, the thickets dishevelled, and the nuts, in the corries of A rdkinglas, the braes of A rdno, dropping upon bracken burned to gold.

And still, for him, it was above all a country of appalling silence in spite of the tide thundering.(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.
