Book excerpt: Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories From Louisiana History This book of Stories from Louisiana History is intended to lead up to the authors' History 'of Louisiana, which has been used for more than a decade in the public schools of the State. It relates in greater detail and in simpler form the romantic incidents in the early history of the Mississippi Valley. Though the Stories have been prepared for very young readers, the authors have been able, in a large part of the book, to give them word for word from the original sources. The narratives left us by the first explorers and settlers tell in the simplest and most stirring language of the dan gers and hardships they themselves endured. Thus, at the beginning of their studies, the young people may taste one of the highest joys of the his torian; they may feel themselves in direct, intimate touch with the men who made our history. The Stories, it will be found, are true in every particular. Not a single detail has been introduced from the realm of fiction. It should be added that the first portion of the book, down to the Revolution of 1768, was written by Miss King and the remainder by Mr. Ficklen. The latter wishes to express his obligations to his wife for her aid in preparing the story of the Great Purchase, and both authors desire to thank her for designing the cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Washington Cable (October 12, 1844 - January 31, 1925) was an American novelist notable for the realism of his portrayals of Creole life in his native New Orleans, Louisiana. He has been called "the most important southern artist working in the late 19th century", as well as "the first modern Southern writer." In his treatment of racism, mixed-race families and miscegenation, his fiction has been thought to anticipate that of William Faulkner. He also wrote articles critical of contemporary society. Due to hostility against him after two 1885 essays encouraging racial equality and opposing Jim Crow, Cable moved with his family to Northampton, Massachusetts. He lived there for the next thirty years, then moved to Florida.

Book excerpt: Strange but true books popular in the 19th and 20th centuries before we had strange but true television. It contains the story of Madame Lalaurie which is being included in a recent American Horror Story season. The antiquated writing style works against it, but the stories themselves are so interesting that after a while you won't care.

He was playing carelessly, and had lost four games, a thing that had never happened before, for whether it was that Monsieur Landry was the better player, or whether it was that Father Martain was too considerate to beat him, he invariably won.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: True stories are not often good art. The relations and experiences of real men and women rarely fall in such symmetrical order as to make an artistic whole. Until they have had such treatment as we give stone in the quarry or gems in the rough they seldom group themselves with that harmony of values and brilliant unity of interest that result when art comes in--not so much to transcend nature as to make nature transcend herself.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lovers of Louisiana (to-Day) In 1914, lengthened far out to Bayou Saint John, with its two separate roadways and a grassy tree planted parkway between them, it still was socially best among the score of streets, once so short, Of the Old franco-spanish City. One of its most attractive dwellings, Of brick under a rich brown stucco, was near Rampart Street. It may be gone now. It was Of three stories, the first sixteen feet high, the second twelve. That was for coolness. A dozen yards back from the sidewalk, in courtly dig nity, Without a blemish of architectural parade, this fair home awaited its visitors' approach through a gate of wrought-iron Openwork in a wall eight feet high, also Of brown stucco and covered, the 'year round, with climbing roses. Along the wall's coping ran an iron balustrade patterned to match the gate. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
