Download or read book Norðurfari Or Rambles in Iceland (Classic Reprint) written by Pliny Miles and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Norourfari or Rambles in Iceland A Preface to a book, is a sort of pedestal where the author gets up to make a speech; frequently an apologizing ground, where he "drops in - hopes he don't intrude;" a little strip of green carpet near the foot-lights, where he bows to the audience, and with a trembling voice asks them to look with lenient eyes on his darling bantling that is just coming before the world. Very likely he tells of the numerous difficulties and disadvantages under which he has labored; perhaps apologizes for his style, under the plea of writing against time, and that he has been greatly hurried. Readers and critics are usually indulgent towards the minor faults of an author, provided he entertains or instructs them; but they pay little attention to special pleadings. The writer who deliberately perpetrates a stupid or silly book, deserves the fate of dunces - obloquy and contempt. If he adds to this the double crime of setting up a justification, and askst hat his work be not subject to the usual canons of criticism, then the reviewers should level their heaviest guns, pepper him pungently, and prove him but a buzzard, while he claimed the honors of a game-cock. We however, have a right to expect and demand more from a veteran author, than from a young and inexperienced one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Girl's Ride in Iceland When this little volume (my maiden effort) was published five years ago, it unwittingly originated an angry controversy by raising the question "Should women ride astride?" It is astonishing what a great fire a mere spark may kindle, and accordingly the war, on what proved to be a very vexed subject, waged fast and furious. The picture papers inserted cleverly-illustrated articles pro and con.; the peace of families was temporarily wrecked - for people were of course divided in their opinions - and bitter things were said by both sides concerning a very simple and harmless matter. For a time it seemed as though the "Ayes" would win; but eventually appearances carried the day, and women still use side-saddles when on horseback, though the knickerbockers and short skirts (only far shorter) I advocated for rough country riding are now constantly worn by the many female equestrians who within the last couple of years have mounted bicycles. It is nearly four years since, from an hotel window in Copenhagen, I saw, to my great surprise, for the first time a woman astride a bicycle! How strange it seemed!
