Excerpt from The Justice of the Duke He was dressed from head to foot in black; but through the slashings of his velvet doublet gleamed the rich yellow of an undervest of cloth-oi - gold a ruby studded girdle gripped his loins, and on his hip hung a heavy gold-hilted Pistoia dagger in a golden sheath of cunning workmanship. His tawny head was bare. Again came never so faintly the creak of that stealthy footstep behind him, and again it went unperceived. Nor yet did Cesare move when another and heavier tread rang on the staircase mounting to his room. Absorbed he continued his survey of Varamo's camp. The door was opened and reclosed. Someone had entered and was approaching him. Still he did not stir yet without stirring he spoke, addressing the new comer by name.

Excerpt from The Duke Decides Englishman somehow conveyed the impression that he would not expect to be treated in re turn by his new acquaintance, who was pre pared to take advantage of his liberality. To do him justice, Hanbury's complacence was not entirely due to spirituous longings, but to a homesick instinct aroused by the Cockney accent of the vulgar stranger. The garish underground saloon into which they descended was almost empty at that early hour of the evening. Drinks having been set before them at one of the circular tables, the host subjected his guest to a scrutiny so searching that its object broke into a laugh.

Excerpt from Duke He wore an old felt hat over one eye, a faded and shiny suit of blue serge, a high linen collar two sizes too large for his sinewy throat, and brown shoes that were not new. He carried a leather valise of English make, which, like its owner, had travelled a great deal in questionable company, was a little Worn and some what pinched.

Excerpt from The Duke of Stockbridge: A Romance of Shays' Rebellion The Duke of Stockbridge was written by Mr. Edward Bellamy in 1879, at the request of the editor of a local paper in Great Harrington, Massachusetts. In the author's mind were already stirring the grave questions which he was soon to propound in Looking Backward; and when he undertook to write a romance of his native Berkshire Hills he chose, not unnaturally, the episode of the revolt of the debtor-farmers in 1786 against their harsh creditors and the oppressive State government. Although he wrote the story primarily for publication in an inconspicuous village paper, Mr. Bellamy was not the artist to allow the work to fall below the standard of his literary conscience; and as the tale grew upon his hands he soon was putting into it the rarest quality of his style, of his genuineness, and of his imagination, as well as the industry of his painstaking research. When the story was completed he refused the offers of publishers, and determined to delay its appearance as a book until after the publication of Looking Backward, which now had taken pressing shape in his mind. The Duke of Stockbridge was the projection of his sympathies into the forms of art; but he knew that, if published then, it would be received merely as a novel, and its depth of meaning would be perceived only by few. Therefore it seemed better that this tale should wait until he had given, in his next book, his formal and unmistakable definition of proper human relationship.

Excerpt from The Justice of Gideon She closed the door behind her and crossed the floor quickly. She was Slender, and the wide girdle of black satin that She wore emphasised her slender ness. The Judge, smiling bashfully, bowed across his desk with mock ceremony. Take the prisoner's chair, he said. She sat down, but with no answering smile. Her manner was somewhat nervous and her grey eyes were full of concern. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
