Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of Forty Years I have begun these wanderings into a past full of agreeable hours with my impressions of England and the English. My motive has been twofold. First, because my book being published in England it should be of particular interest to English-speaking peoples to read a foreigner's impressions. My second reason is that I have the sincere conviction that nowhere as in England exists such a spirit of all-round good fellow ship and toleration. The second part of my book concerns itself with Germany, my home for many years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Forty-Odd Years in the Literary Shop (Classic Reprint) by : James Lauren Ford
Download or read book Forty-Odd Years in the Literary Shop (Classic Reprint) written by James Lauren Ford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forty-Odd Years in the Literary Shop My determination to write these memoirs came about in this fashion. A' disaster, neither the first nor the worst, and I fear not the last, of a series that overtook me during my seventh decade, brought me to the operat ing table in Roosevelt Hospital where I heard the voice of one invisible saying: I am the sleep-doctor. Try to breathe three or four times through this piece of gauze. The fourth breath was superfluous for it needed only the third to bring me back to my bed in a private room, free from the pain that I had endured for many days and dimly conscious that I was permanently crippled. Such is the magic of modern surgery. Then, with my senses dulled by opiates, I entered upon a period Of rest and peace to which I had long been a stranger. Although, I have always loved life and contemplated with dread its inevitable finish, I now found myself strangely indifferent to the fact, which I fully realized, that another week might find me lying where lie the kin whom I have best loved, their faces turned toward the East as demanded by ancient, pious custom, there to await that which no man can foretell. For after all I had nearly run out my course, and there remained to me at best but a few more of the years allotted by the Psalmist. AS the drug began to lose its force, I found It pleas anter to turn my thoughts away from the uncertain future and follow them back through the changing years to past joys, to the friends who had helped me over the rough places, to everything that had made life worth the living. And it was while thus idly brooding that a desire, vaguely cherished for many years, to set down some Of the events, experiences and impressions of bygone days, renewed itself in my mind. The period Of convalescence in a hospital is not with out its compensations, one Of which is the getting better and better as the days roll on instead Of Sinking deeper and deeper into the Slough of Despond. My door never opened save to admit someone I was glad to see, and of the many tried friends whom I had reason to expect, few failed me, while many, whom I had regarded as mere acquaintances, gladdened me by their generous sympathy. The rector and curate of a church in which I had never set foot, came more than once, and one afternoon I awoke to see close beside my bed the kindly face and grizzled beard of my old school room-mate. Gifts of flowers, fruit and cigarettes soon made the place look like a prima donna's dressing room and did much to dispel a long ingrained suspicion that women are in capable of gratitude. To recite the number and quality Of my visitors would be to confess myself eaten with the resultant vanity - a secret best locked in my own bosom.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories Grave and Gay, Forty Years of School Inspection It is possible that what I have to say may be interesting to some, and not unprofitable to others, but the consideration that has had most weight with me in making me take up my pen is, that I shall recall to memory many incidents in themselves commonplace it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Memories These memories were written for The Christian Register, and ran through twenty-nine numbers, from December, 1903 to April, 1904. Many friends had suggested in the later years that I should write some memoirs of my life and print them, or leave them in the care of my children to be printed after my death. I did not favor the idea. But when I came to the eightieth mile-stone of my pilgrimage, there was such an outpouring of greetings and congratulations from the Church of the Messiah, the sister churches and ministers, and from friends far and wide in my motherland and my homeland these fifty-eight years, that my heart was moved to do something in this sort, and it was done, not as memoirs - these I could not attempt - but as "some memories."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of What I Saw, What I Lived Through, and What I Learned, During More Than Fifty Years of Social and Literary Experience I must begin with a confidential word to my readers. I have been a hard-working literary woman for more than forty years, but I do not Write these memories because I attach any Significance to my own personality. I have written them for my own pleasure; be cause friends have seemed interested and amused by scraps Which I have told them; because I think some of my contemporaries may like to be reminded of ways of life and thought Which are passing into oblivion because I have witnessed some beginnings which are ripening yet; and because I find the present abounds with those to whom some Of my memories have already a certain antiquarian flavour. I must express my gratitude to the friends through whose instigation and sympathy I have been led to enjoy these pleasures of memory. I also offer my cordial thanks to the other friends who have given me ready furtherance in the matter Of illustrations - viz., to Lord Guthrie, Miss Lydia Nicol, and Mr. Robert Brown.

This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Sherman's Recollections of Forty Years in the House, Senate and Cabinet: An Autobiography These volumes do contain the true history of the chief financial measures of the United States government during the past forty years. My h0pe is that those who read them will be able to correct the wild delusions of many honest citizens who became infected with the greenback craze, or the free coinage of silver. My chief regret is that the limit of these volumes did not permit me to extend my narrative to the memorable battles and marches of the Civil War, nor to a more general notice of my associates who distinguished themselves in civil life. The omission of military narrative is admirably compensated by the memoirs of the great commanders on either side, and better yet by the vast collection and publication, by the United States, of the Records of the Rebellion. The attempt to include in these volumes my estimate of distinguished men still living who participated in the events narrated would greatly extend them and might lead to injustice.

Much fever is exhibited, and interest in the emigrants who purchase fire arms, etc., I was delighted on Friday, when Mason very unexpectedly dropped in to our rooms having arrived the night before at midnight.
