Excerpt from Our Old Home, Vol. 2 of 2 The country between Oxford and Blen heim is not particularly interesting, being almost level, or undulating very slightly; nor is Oxfordshire, agriculturally, a rich part of England. We saw one or two hamlets, and I especially remember a pic turesque Old gabled house at a turnpike gate, and, altogether, the wayside scenery had an aspect of old-fashioned English life; but there was nothing very memorable till we reached Woodstock, and stopped to water our horses at the Black Bear. This neighborhood is called New Woodstock, but has by no means the brand-new appear ance of an American town, being a large village of stone houses, most of them pretty well time-worn and weather-stained. The Black Bear is an ancient inn, large and respectable, with balustraded staircases, and intricate passages and corridors, and queer old pictures and engravings hanging in the entries and apartments. We ordered a lunch (the most delightful of English insti tutions, next to dinner) to be ready against our return, and then resumed our drive to Blenheim.

Excerpt from Old World Memories, Vol. 1 of 2 Before the Old World swam into our ken we had been impressed by this thought in Hawthorne's Our Old Home, and since then have remained the more convinced of its truth ful insight. I believe that the Chief delight and advantage of this kind of literature is not for any real information that it supplies to untravelled people, but for reviewing the recollections and reawakening the emotions of persons already acquainted with the scenes described. States of mind produced by inter esting and remarkable truthfully and vividly recorded, may work a genuine effect, and go farther towards representing the actual scene than any direct effort to paint it.

The Anarchist Cookbook will shock, it will disturb, it will provoke. It places in historical perspective an era when "Turn on, Burn down, Blow up" are revolutionary slogans of the day. Says the author" "This book... is not written for the members of fringe political groups, such as the Weatherman, or The Minutemen. Those radical groups don't need this book. They already know everything that's in here. If the real people of America, the silent majority, are going to survive, they must educate themselves. That is the purpose of this book." In what the author considers a survival guide, there is explicit information on the uses and effects of drugs, ranging from pot to heroin to peanuts. There i detailed advice concerning electronics, sabotage, and surveillance, with data on everything from bugs to scramblers. There is a comprehensive chapter on natural, non-lethal, and lethal weapons, running the gamut from cattle prods to sub-machine guns to bows and arrows.
Excerpt from The Home, Vol. 2 of 2: Or, Family Cares and Family Joys I know that I am old, old before my time; that I am ugly and disagreeable, unpleasant, and perhaps ridiculous; but I do not think that nature intended me to be so. I have gone through life in such infinite solitude; neither father nor mother, brother nor sister, have followed my path; no sunshine fell upon my childhood or my youth; I have wandered solitarily through life, combating with difficulties. Once I bound myself to a friend, - he deserted me, and thence grew the rock about my heart; thence became my demeanour severe, unattractive, and rough. Is it to remain so always? Will my life never bloom upon earth? Will no. Breath of heaven call forth my roses? Do you fear my melancholy temperament? Oh, you have not seen how a glance, a word of yours chases every cloud from my brow; not because you are beautiful, but because you are good and pure.

Excerpt from Home, Sweet Home, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel A Large, old-fashioned, rambling white house, with red-tiled roof, standing high up on the side of a steep green hill; a background of dark fir-trees crowning that hill, belts of plantation running down to a split oak fence; a long broad strip of common-land, the turf smooth and close as velvet; a narrow sandy country road - made up a landscape on which I gazed day after day, and year after year, from the windows of our cottage, till it became photographed on my brain, a very part and parcel of my memory.
