Tom Burke of Ours, Vol. 1 of 2

Paperback (Forgotten Books Sept. 16, 2017)
Excerpt from Tom Burke of Ours, Vol. 1 of 2In the rumble, with the guard, rode one, whose burly figure and rosy cheeks seemed to feel no touch of the inclement Wind that made his companions crouch. An oiled-silk foraging-cap, fastened beneath the chin, and a large mantle of blue cloth bespoke him a soldier, if even the assured tone of his voice, and a certain easy carriage of his head, had not conveyed to the acute observer the same information.Unsubdued in spirit, undepressed in mind either by the long day of pouring rain, or the melancholy outline of country on every side, his dark eye flashed as brightly from beneath the brim of his cap, and his ruddy face beamed _as cheerily, as though nature had put forth her every charm of weather and scenery to greet and delight him.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
