Excerpt from Jack-of-All-Trades So I do not dare call this page a Preface, for fear you, too, will skip it; but we all love sharing a real secret, don't we? Especially a big important secret that 80 many people in America know nothing about. My secret reminds me of the Old-fashioned fairy story about a little Old cobbler who fell asleep almost every evening when he should have been finishing shoes for his customers; he knew perfectly well that he had been asleep, and yet when he woke up with a start, there in his hands would always be a brand new pair Of shoes, all ready to wear! The strangest part Of it was that they were much better shoes than he could possibly make himself. Every time, he used to shake his dear Old white head, and wonder and wonder how they got there!

Excerpt from The Jack of All Trades: New Ideas for American Boys IT was not the author's original intention to produce a series of boys' books. On the contrary, he expected that his work in this line would begin and end with The American Boy's Handy Book. The great popularity of that book is a constant source of gratification and pleasure to the author but he was not a little surprised and embarrassed when he discovered that in place of satisfying the lads he had only whetted their appetite for more material in the same line. Letters from boys in many parts of the British Provinces, and from all over the United States, convinced the writer that he had yet work to do for them, and the revised and enlarged edition of The American Boy's Handy Book was issued. After a brief period of time the quaintly worded letters in boyish handwriting began again to increase the mail left at the author's studio, and this time he laid aside his brush and pencil to produce The Outdoor Handy Book.

Excerpt from Little Jack of All Trades, With Suitable Representations, Vol. 1 I'm also a farrier, nor sluggard, nor sot My anvil I strike While the iron is hot. The labours of the Smith are highly to be prized, since every trade, more or less, is indebted to him. The Blacksmith softens iron in his forge, and by shaping it with his hammer. On the anvil, furnishes us with keys, to secure our houses and property froin thieves; hoops for barrels; tires, or bands, for wheels; nails, which though seemingly insignificant, are of the first utility: grates and fire irons, ploughshares, and most other im plements of agriculture.

Excerpt from The Wandering Heir; The Autobiography of a Thief; Jack of All Trades Aloof from this motley line stood a single, timid figure; a boy with delicate skin, and exquisite golden hair, his face pale and anxious. He wore a straight-cut coat, scarlet once, but now a rusty red, no hat, shoes with steel buckles and holes. This decayed little gentle man peered anxiously round a corner of the building, and, as soon as ever the school broke up with horrid yells, ran and hid himself.
