Tales of the Road (Classic Reprint) by Charles N. Crewdson Pdf

Excerpt from Tales of the Road By salesman I do not mean the man who stands behind the counter and lets the customer who comes to him and wants to buy a necktie slip away because the spots on the silk are blue instead of green; nor do I mean the man who wraps up a collar, size 16, and calls cash I mean the man who takes his grip or sample trunks and goes to hunt his customer - the traveling salesman. Certainly there are salesmen behind the counter, and he has much in common with the man on the road. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Tales of a Traveler by S. S. Skidelsky Pdf

Excerpt from The Tales of a Traveler: Reminiscences and Reflections From Twenty-Eight Years on the Road From Columbia to Lancaster is but a few miles, and there I went next. At Lancaster I succeeded in getting a few more orders, in themselves of no great account, but in the aggregate quite sufficient to encourage both my employer and his employee. I was on the road to success, I felt that hard work and persever ance would do the trick. On that trip I made Harrisburg, Lebanon, Reading, Allentown, and Easton, and returned to Philadelphia proud of my achievements. I had done my share in every town, introducing a new and unknown concern at the same time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Tales of a Pathfinder (Classic Reprint) by A. L. Westgard Pdf

Excerpt from Tales of a Pathfinder The story of the highways is the story of mankind, whether in a state of barbarism or of civilization. The movement of primitive peoples has been by waterways and land-routes which, following lines of least resistance, often appropriated the trails made by wild animals. The movements of civilized men likewise followed the least resistive lines with the result that the great railways and the National highways coincide with the game-trails and the Indian paths of long ago. The ascent of man has been in direct ratio to the progress that has been made in the speed, safety, comfort and convenience of the movement of men and goods from one place to another. The wheel is the emblem of human progress. The supreme evolution of the wheel is the automobile. Already six and a half million automobiles are daily employed In speeding a third of the population of the United States along their way with the demand increasing so rapidly that the factories are unable to meet it. Every Intelligent citizen in the United States knows that the next big job for America now that the war is over is to construct road beds as perfectly adapted to the economic operation thereon of motor vehicles as the road bed of the railway is adapted to the use thereon of its rolling stock.

Roads: A Legend of Santa Claus by Seabury Quinn Pdf

“I have not tried to paint the portrait of a man, but merely to present a personality and hazard a guess as to the motivation that makes Santa Claus the wondrous figure he is — a figure who more than any other exemplifies the beauty of selflessness.” — Seabury Quinn ​Drawing upon the original Christian legends that coalesced over centuries into the familiar, jolly form of Saint Nicholas, pulp fiction pioneer Seabury Quinn weaves a spellbinding new origin for this most beloved of children’s icons in his classic novella Roads.

The Road by Cormac McCarthy Pdf

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A searing, post-apocalyptic novel about a father and son's fight to survive, this "tale of survival and the miracle of goodness only adds to McCarthy's stature as a living master. It's gripping, frightening and, ultimately, beautiful" (San Francisco Chronicle). • From the bestselling author of The Passenger A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food—and each other. The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, "each the other's world entire," are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation. Look for Cormac McCarthy's latest bestselling novels, The Passenger and Stella Maris.

A Book of Cambridge Verse (Classic Reprint) by Ernest Edward Kellett Pdf

Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Hound of the Road (Classic Reprint) by Mary Cameron Gilmore Pdf

Excerpt from Hound of the Road When that restless pilgrim whose unwritten story is partly suggested in the second half of these pages came to my house I brought him in and gave him meat and drink. But when he had rested a while he rose and went his way again leaving me with the fragments of the uncompleted and with a deep wonder as to why so many must follow a far star when a near one shines in the heart and is spoken in the deep moments of the inner self. That some of this wonder will remain with those for whom this is written is the hope of the writer. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Tales of Two Countries (Classic Reprint) by Maxim Gorky Pdf

Excerpt from Tales of Two Countries A blue lake is deeply set in mountains capped with eternal snow. A dark net work oi gardens descends in gorgeous folds to the water. White houses that look like lumps of sugar peer down from the bank into the lake and everything around is as quiet and peaceful as the sleep Of a child. It is morning. A perfume of flowers is wafted gently from the mountains. The sun is new risen and the dew still glistens on the leaves of trees and the petals of flowers. A road like a grey ribbon thrusts into the quiet mountain gorge - a stone-paved road which yet looks as soft as velvet, so that one almost has a desire to stroke it. Near a pile Of stones sits a workman, like some dark coloured beetle; on his breast is a medal; his face is serious, bold, but kindly.

New Canterbury Tales (Classic Reprint) by John Philipps Emslie Pdf

Excerpt from New Canterbury Tales That we begin to ask what halves may mean, Since they in ever-changing forms are seen. Take half of eight; twice two, or four times one, And see how different halves in form may run, When equal area's not of equal length, While equal size may have unequal strength; A whole mob's wisdom often will not reach To half of what one learned sage can teach; When two take halves in sharing wisdom, it Not follows they take equal shares of wit; And, two wits being equal, oft we find Their gifts unequal; so wills Fortune blind; And then, again - stop, lest my brain, o'erwrought, Should find its travelled farther than it ought. Thus thought I, as, in fancy, once I went Along that pleasant road in fertile Kent That's known as Watling Street. I rode a horse That lightly carried me along the course; Though you'll say I did ne'er on horseback act; But this is fancy; don't forget that fact. My head, with gloomy lumbering thought opprest, So heavy grew, it drooped upon my breast; It had, with heavier thought, dropped at my feet, And thought no more; 'tis thus extremes do meet. When, on a sudden, a sharp clattering sound Of hoofs disturbed my thought, and, looking round, I saw, swift coming onward, and with force, A heavier man than I, a heavier horse About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Exeter Road by Charles G. Harper Pdf

Excerpt from The Exeter Road: The Story of the West of England Highway Book description have been suppressed; nor for this would it seem necessary to appear apologetic, even although local patriotism is a militant force, and resents anything less than a detailed and favour able description of every village, interesting or not. How militant parochial patriots may be the writer already knows. You may criticise the British Empire and prophesy its downfall if you feel that way inclined, and welcome; but it is the Unpardon able Sin to say that Little Pedlington is anything less than the cleanest, the neatest, and the busiest for its size of all the Sweet Auburns in the land Has not the writer been promised a bad quarter of an hour by the local press, should he revisit Cray ford, after writing of that uncleanly place in the dover road? And have the good folks of Chard still kept the tar and feathers in readiness for him who, daring greatly, presumed to say the place was so quiet that when the stranger appeared in its streets every head was out of doors and windows Point of view is everything. The stranger finds a place charming because everything in it is old, and quiet reigns supreme. Quietude and antiquity, how eminently desirable and delightful when found he thinks. Not so the dweller in such a spot. He would welcome as a benefactor any one who would. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
