Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notable Women Authors of the Day A blue sky and a bright sun belie the typical foggy month of November, and while entering the elevator which glides rapidly and smoothly to the eighth floor of the gigantic pile of buildings once cynically termed "Hankey's Folly" - now Queen Anne's Mansions - you feel justified in anticipating a glorious view over the great city. You step out into a corridor where are arranged a stand of grenades with a couple of hydrants, backed by printed directions for their use, and are shown into the library of the distinguished author; but ere there is time to look around, the door opens, and Mrs. Lynn Linton enters. Her personality may be described thus: tall, upright, and stately in appearance, the keen, but kindly bright blue eyes smiling through the gold-rimmed glasses which she always wears.

This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Woman's Story, as Told by Twenty American Women: With Portraits, and Sketches of the Authors The woman's story as told by twenty American women is a composite picture of the representative fiction work of the female writers of the republic. It is one which depicts the types and characteristics of people who unitedly compose our young nation. The composite woman's picture is full of patriotic fire; of the fervor and faith of free institutions, and is distin guished by a zealous allegiance to the domestic quali ties of the people, which have found widest expression under our form of government. The difierences in population; the varieties of classes, and the broad distinctions in local coloring are vividly exhibited in the annals of American fiction, the largest contributors to which are women. The compilation represents the field of fiction, from the appearance of the first great American novel to the present day. Mrs. Stowe's sketch of New England life, which Opens the volume, was the forerunner of Uncle Tom's Cabin, and is as graphic a pen-picture of the phase of life it represents as was her famous novel of slavery. Miss Alcott's Transcendental Wild Oats' is the truest delineation of the salient features of the Transcendental movement yet made, and is as striking in its faithfulness as is Mrs. Stowe's Uncle Lot.

I thought of the Kremlin. I looked for the moon - it was gone; for the stars - they were blotted out. But close beside me were two eyes - warm eyes that humanized the horrible light, and a voice saying Don't be afraid; there is no danger. No danger! I fetched a long breath and said good-night, and realized that brain and spine were aching as if after a strain. Yet only a shiver had gone over me.

The day had been strangely quiet, quiet airs, quiet Skies, quiet streets, but that was because the eve of the feast fell on a Saturday. Quiet people too, for I think that about this time a sort of remorseful tender ness comes over the bullies and the nagsters, so that they go about gently and deprecatingly, hoping by one day's record sweetness to outface the year's blusterings. One sees crusty old gentlemen bestowing pennies on non-begging Children, sour old maids tipping favoured crossing sweepers, and the children themselves playing quietly, hushed by the unusual sense of imminence that a purely arbitrary Chronological arrangement, skilfully manipulated, can give.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Woman Movement The limited compass of this little book prevents me from substantiating my assertions by means of parallels with earlier times, comparisons which might illuminate certain spiritual transformations and new formations. My comparisons of the present with the past do not go farther back than my own memory reaches. And these touch, more over, in what concerns the past, principally up on Swedish conditions; while my impressions of the present were gathered throughout Europe. I have considered, however, that I could summarise both in a comprehensive picture. For although the women of Sweden a generation ago possessed rights for which the women in many countries are still struggling to-day, yet the woman movement in the last decade has advanced so rapidly that the conditions have in great measure been equal ised. Indeed, some of the grey-haired champions of the woman movement have seen one after another of their demands fulfilled in this new cen tury-demands which in the fifties and sixties, in many countries even in the seventies and eighties.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woman's Life in Colonial Days The author has endeavored to follow such advice by bringing forward those qualities of colonial womanhood which have made for the refinement, the intellectuality, the spirit, the aggressiveness, and withal the genuine womanliness of the present-day American woman. As the book is not intended for scholars alone, the author has felt free when he had not original source material before him to quote now and then from the studies of writers on other phases of colonial life - such as the valuable books by Dr. Philip Alexander Bruce, Dr. John Bassett, Dr. George Sydney Fisher, Charles C. Coffin, Alice Brown, Alice Morse Earle, Anna Hollingsworth Wharton, and Geraldine Brooks. The author believes that many misconceptions have crept into the mind of the average reader concerning the life of colonial women ideas, for instance, of unending, long-faced gloom, constant fear of pleasure, repression of all normal emotions. It is hoped that this book will go far toward clearing the mind of the reader of such misconceptions, by showing that woman in colonial days knew love and passion, felt longing and aspiration, used the heart and the brain, very much as does her descendant of to-day.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Women in Love: Sixty Twentieth-Century Masterpieces of Fiction Thus it is immediately apparent that the editors have not relied upon the inevitable bedside tales, the set-pieces, the hackneyed Stand-bys, which fill the conventional Treasuries with the (wet familiar. They have not included everything, or nearly everything they may have hoped to reprint. The Severe birth control exer cised by publishers makes it impossible to represent every author who might be worthy of inclusion. This anthology, like every other anthology, is a compromise between the complete and perfect compendium existing in the editor's mind and the com pilation permitted by the hydra-headed Ogres who control the permissions department in all the publishing houses. But it is equally obvious that the editors, with their own zcriteria and te markable rightness of choice, enrich the reader's experience. The skillfully condensed notes, the supplementary guides, the very division of the volume into two parts-the first of which might be classified as organized love, and the second (which is devoted to the perverse and insoluble problems) to What might be called disorganized love - add to one's comprehension. The stories contained in the book are more than stories. They are strange, sometimes secret, and.always revealing episodes Of life beneath the surface, beyond the event. In each case the editors go straight to the core; their labors consist not only In: selecting but in probing. Again and again they expose crucial Situations: the book is literally a series of contrasting climaxes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
