Paperback (Forgotten Books Feb. 2, 2018)
Excerpt from Alice Lorraine, Vol. 1 of 3: A Tale of the South DownsHowever, it might be too much to say that the cleverest child beneath the hills, or even the man with the licence to sell tea, coffee, snuff, and tobacco, who now comes looking after them, finds any conscious pleasure, or feels quickening influence from the scene. To them it is but a spread of meadows under a long curve of hill, green and mixed with trees down here, brown and spotted with furze up there to the children a play-ground to their father a farm, desirable at so much per acre.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
