Excerpt from Wood-Notes Wild Prefaces are, I believe, out of date now; nevertheless, at the risk of being counted Old-fashioned, I wish to say a'few words to my readers on launching upon the market this collection of verse. A few years ago, I had printed a small booklet of verse, and the same received very favorable notice, not only from home papers, but also from many of the leading newspapers, both in the East and West; the whole edition of one thousand Oopies was sold out in fifteen days, which was very gratifying to me, and since then I have often been importuned to risk something on a larger scale. This I have now done, in issuing the present volume Of wood-notes wild. I may not even be rated as a fourth class writer Of verse, but let us remember that every star is not a comet, every flower is not a rose, and every hill is not an alp; and if I have been endowed with a small share Of the poetic fire, surely I am justified in making use of it, humble though it be. There has been no attempt made at classification, but, to please a whim Of my own, I have had the pieces printed in the order in which they were written. I now leave wood-notes wild in the hands of, and to the mercy of, a generous public, and I hope that none of my readers will lay aside this collection of verse without having received some crumbs Of pleasure.

Excerpt from Wood Notes Wild, Notations of Bird Music The editor, no more of an ornithologist and much less Of a musician than the author, cannot hope that he has steered clear of error; he hopes only for the general judgment that the work were better done crudely than not at all.

Excerpt from Wild Wood, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel May attempted no remonstrance, but went up and saw after things for the night. Durill kept his word; a little before twelve he came in, arrayed in dressing gown and slippers, and sat down opposite May by the fire. The time wore on, and they talked in whispers for fear of waking Evelyn, who slept but fitfully. Sometimes May would give her a drink, and turn the pillow; then she would doze again. A few minutes before three she got wide awake, and May lifted her up and gave her some jelly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Hermit's Wild Friends: Or Eighteen Years in the Woods Oh, that was easy. When she heeled too much, I shook her up, and kept her from taking in water. Shook her up, was a new phrase to me. Below my Eyrie lay the little hamlet called the Cut. Some of its cottages had straggled up to the base Of the cliff just below the tent. I could look down on a long stretch of Western Avenue beginning at the Cut and ending in Ward Five, beyond the Cut Bridge. The latter was a drawbridge, and when open the city of Gloucester was on an island, with the exception of Ward Eight, which lies on the west side Of Annisquam River.

Excerpt from Secrets of the Woods, Vol. 3 This little book is but chapter in the shy, wild life of the fields and woods, of which "Ways of Wood Folk" and "Wilderness Ways" were the beginning. It is given gladly in answer to the call for more from those who have read the previous volumes, and whose letters are full of the spirit of kindness and appreciation. Many questions have come of late with these same letters; chief of which is this? how shall we, too, read the secrets of the Wood Folk? There is no space here to answer, to describe the long training, even if one could explain perfectly what is more or less unconscious. I would only suggest that perhaps the real reason why we see so little in the woods is the way we go through them - talking, laughing, rustling, smashing twigs, disturbing the peace of the solitudes by what must seem strange and uncouth noises to the little wild creatures. They, on the other hand, slip with noiseless feet through their native coverts, shy, silent, listening, more concerned to hear than to be heard, loving the silence, hating noise and fearing it, as they fear and hate their natural enemies.
