Excerpt from The Father of a Soldier Dear Father: Here I am, sailing to the trenches-for a third time - and there are you, having once again gone through the brave ordeal of bidding me " Goodbye" You urged me while I was with you for that brief handful of weeks in America to write a book. You said that you were sure that I had something quite different from anybody else to say. So, obeying you as I always have done, I spent the bulk of my leave in that little familiar study at the top of the house, pretending that the war was over and that I was no longer only a subaltern, but a literary man again. Now I want you to obey me - it'll be the first time - just for once. I want you, too, to write a book, for I believe that you also have something utterly unique to say.

Excerpt from Letters From an American Soldier to His Father These letters were written with no thought in the mind of the writer of their being published. The personal note is obvious in them and no attempt has been of the slightest. About all that has been done is to give initials in place of names where persons are mentioned by name, to give a heading to each letter, and to eliminate here and there a personal reference that would be blind to the reader. Otherwise the letters are just as written - the fresh, spontaneous, unconstrained narrative of personal experiences that link themselves up closely to a million American homes from which boys have gone to prepare themselves for similar experiences. Lieutenant Wheeler was one of the contingent selected from the first Plattsburg camp to be sent abroad for three months' study, close up of modern warfare.

Excerpt from A Soldier's Son The war was over - the cruel, cruel war; and Father and Uncle Howard were on their way home. Children's voices, in every key Of joy and thanksgiving, sang the happy news from morning to night. The white, strained look faded from Mother's face, and she became her Old, bright self again. Now that they were over, the Children tried to forget how long and sad and weary the days had been during which the Sight Of the post bag, and the morning newspaper, almost took everyone's breath away, until the columns of War news had been hastily scanned before taking letters and papers to Mother's room. Then came the day when Uncle Howard's name was amongst the seriously wounded, and there was a brief account Of how he had saved the guns, and then returning into the firing line to pick up a wounded soldier, had himself been dangerously wounded. The children thought of Uncle Howard's delicate young motherless boy, and sobbed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Works of Victor Hugo These Greek capitals, black with age, and quite deeply graven in the stone, with I know not what signs peculiar to Gothic caligraphy imprinted upon their forms and upon their attitudes, as though with the purpose of revealing that it had been a hand of the Middle Ages which had inscribed them there, and especially the fatal and melancholy meaning contained in them, struck the author deeply. He questioned himself; he sought to divine who could have been that soul in torment which had not been willing to quit this world without leaving this stigma of crime or unhappi ness upon the brow of the ancient church.
