Excerpt from The Lure of the Land, Farming After Fifty To the farmer's boy the town appeals as a means of a career. The country appeals to the city boy as a place of rest and quiet enjoyment. When you turn your face towards the city you go to hard struggle, a hard environment, to a life surrounded by temptations. When you face the country, on the contrary, you look to a life of repose, of quiet, not devoid of labor, but with greater certainty of success and less ignominy of failure. The one is an instinct to return to the nat ural life, the other is a desire to acquire the artificial life. Each of them is logical, and each of these de sires must be reckoned with from the standpoint of practical philosophy.

Excerpt from The Lure of the Map, Vol. 2 Recollections that at the height of the Land League troubles in Ireland the anxious politicians at Dublin Castle found time to unbend over literature, and that a stock topic of the literary journalists engaged their august attention. On the old question, writes Lord Morley, what author one would take to a desert island, Asquith was for Balzac; of course Shakespeare and the Bible were given in, though perhaps not most read. As a literary journalist myself I had had occasion to consider the question, and had come to the conclusion that I should myself choose an Atlas. It is wonderful what entertainment there is to be got out of an Atlas, with some experience of travel and a' little imagination. You can plan tours that are often as vivid as the real thing and more satisfactory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Lure of the Flame I had just begun a new story for one of our prominent newspapers, when a well-known doctor was announced. When I say that he is well known I do not mean that he is an idol of Mayfair or a much sought-after consultant, though I have no doubt that he could have been either, for he has brains, appearance and sufficient means of his own. But for some reason or other he has elected to devote himself entirely to those who require the services of the Healer, in its twofold sense - the Outcasts of Society, the gutter dwellers of this vast City. "I know you're keen on the White Slave Traffic," he began. "I was," I corrected. "But now the Bill is passed my keenness has lost its point. Even the papers have dropped the subject which they no doubt consider stale." "Mark Danger," he reproved, shaking his fine head, "with your name and your intelligence I expected better things of you! Both the papers and the public are wrong. They go hammer and tongs at a thing, encourage the grossest exaggeration regarding it and work it to death until one step towards their goal is made, like the passing of this Bill - and then they drop it like a useless bauble. In other words, they forsake the fight. Having gained one Victory they think the battle won. But is it? Those they have been denouncing know quite well that it is not. That, if they lie low for a time, their chance will come again. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Shadow Saga continues with in this “fun, fast, action-packed novel” of magic, mystery, and monstrous evil (Elitist Book Reviews). After helping his lover Josephine lay claim to the throne of Nimea, the assassin Caim has ventured north to the land that has haunted his dreams—cold, unforgiving Eregoth. He departs seeking answers to his parents’ murder and hoping that this knowledge will explain his ability to bend the shadows to his will. In searching for his past, Caim wanders into war. But Eregoth is threatened by a power more terrifying than any army—the witch Sybelle, Queen of the Dark. If given the chance, her aims at destruction would not cease at Eregoth but storm through Nimea where Josey struggles to secure her reign. With nothing more than a force of ragtag warriors at his side, Caim knows that standing against Sybelle’s onslaught may be suicide. But as a son of the Shadow, he has no choice but to fight. Even if every life he takes brings him closer to the blackness that would claim him body and soul...
