Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
Excerpt from The Pier-Glass The Stake Naseboro' held him guilty, Crowther took his part, Who lies at the cross-roads, A stake through his heart. Spring calls, and the stake answers Throwing out shoots; The towns debate what life is this Sprung from such roots. Naseboro' says "A Upas Tree"; "A Rose," says Crowther; But April's here to declare it Neither one nor other. Neither ill nor very fair, Rose nor Upas, But an honest oak-tree, As its parent was. A green-tufted oak-tree On the green wold, Careless as the dead heart That the roots enfold. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Interweaves different strands of livses spanning countries and centuries, creating one story of epic proportion. The central character James struggles with his reconstruction of a medieval poet's life, and with his long-distance relationship with Sonia.
