Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Ancient History, Vol. 1 The stories here presented to the public are taken from the second book of his history; because Egypt, whose annals embrace the utmost verge of antiquity, is the subject of that portion of it; and the author making the facts mentioned by Herodotus his foundation, has endeavoured to rear upon them a super structure - as far as possible following reality for his guide. Even where he has ventured into the region of fiction, he has taken care not to adduce any thing contrary to the tenor of history: where it is silent, he has so filled up the chasm as to continue the thread of each story; but it has been his constant plan.

A she wolf that came to the water to drink chanced to see the helpless children, and carried them to her cave, where she fed them with her milk. As they grew older a woodpecker brought them food, ying in and out of the cave. At length Faustulus, a herdsman of the king, found these lusty infants in the wolf's den, took them home, and gave them to his wife Laurentia to bring up with her own children. He gave them the names of Romulus and Remus. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Antinous: A Romance of Ancient Rome This lonely man, who remained incomprehensible even to friends and favorites, and whose mortal enemies, as Spartianus expresses himself, had first been his bosom friends, was devoted for a long time to a Bithynian youth, whom he loved as Socrates loved Alcibiades, and Caesar Brutus. This was Am'mous, with whose busts and statues Hadrian has filled the world. What a totally different impression the lad's thoughtful beauty produces upon us from the passion-seamed visage of the master, to whom he was the dearest thing in life. Inno cence and resignation, melancholy and aimless longing have found imperishable expression in these features. A head bowed moumfully, with waving locks falling low over the forehead, deep-set, mysterious eyes, brows gen tly curved, cheeks rounded like a girl's, which form a singular contrast to the sorrowful expression about the lips and the delicately-moulded chin: this is Antinous. The thoughtful, earnest, spiritual head rests upon a strong neck and unusually broad breast, which reveals the athlete, while the body, with its daintily-formed limbs, is as perfect an ideal of beauty as artist ever dreamed in honor of Apollo or Hermes.

This book was released on 2007-03-17 with total page 897 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lively and engaging narrative history showing the common threads in the cultures that gave birth to our own. This is the first volume in a bold series that tells the stories of all peoples, connecting historical events from Europe to the Middle East to the far coast of China, while still giving weight to the characteristics of each country. Susan Wise Bauer provides both sweeping scope and vivid attention to the individual lives that give flesh to abstract assertions about human history. Dozens of maps provide a clear geography of great events, while timelines give the reader an ongoing sense of the passage of years and cultural interconnection. This old-fashioned narrative history employs the methods of “history from beneath”—literature, epic traditions, private letters and accounts—to connect kings and leaders with the lives of those they ruled. The result is an engrossing tapestry of human behavior from which we may draw conclusions about the direction of world events and the causes behind them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bride of the Nile, Vol. 1 of 2: A Romance Half a lustrum had elapsed since Egypt had be; come subject to the youthful power of the Arabs, which had risen with such unexampled vigor and rapidity. It had fallen an easy prey, cheaply bought, into the hands of a small, well-captained tr00p of Moslem war riors; and the fair province, which so lately had been a jewel of the Byzantine Empire and the most faithful foster-mother to Christianity, now owned the sway of the Khalif Omar and saw the Crescent raised by the side of the Cross. It was long since a hotter season had af icted the land; and the Nile, whose rising had been watched for on the Night of Dropping - the 17th of June with the usual festive preparations, had cheated the hopes of the Egyptians, and instead of rising had shrunk narrower and still narrower in its bed. It was in this time of sore anxiety, on the roth of July, A. D. 643, that a caravan from the North reached Memphis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romancists, Vol. 1 Regained the upper hand. As the hills came nearer together, hemming the valley in more closely, the clearings yielded to the resistance of a wild country. A little farther on they dis appeared altogether. From the foot of the cliffs that bordered the upper plateau of the mountains with a ribbon of granite, the forests extended triumphantly to the bank of the stream. In some places, there were large areas covered with enormous trees, like solid battalions of infantry; in other places, isolated trees seemed to have been planted at random in the Sloping turf, or clambered to the summit of the steepest cliffs like a party of fearless sharpshooters. Parallel with the course of the river ran a narrow road, but seldom used, if one could judge by the infrequent ruts climbing with the hill-sides, rushing down their steep slopes, crossing every obstacle, it ran almost in a straight line. It might well be compared to those energetic characters who set themselves a goal in life and march forward imperturbably toward that goal. The river, on the contrary, like the pliant, conciliatory spirits who bend as events sway them, constantly described graceful curves in obedience to the slightest caprice of the ground that served as its bed.

This grand crucial test of character, however, is as independent of caste, as it is of locality, and it is possible to be quite as miserable upon Clapham Common as anywhere else. My story Opens upon a wet afternoon in early summer - one of the first wet days following upon a long season of drought, and seeming, therefore, except to such persons as were anxious about their crops, all the more gloomy and unbearable from the contrast to its predecessors.

Never - not even in Athens, have I beheld so bewitching a play of light such a wealth of lines and colors. Shaking the dust from his robe, he cast a last glance towards the opposite shore of the bay, where two huge clumps of pine-trees, shimmering in the blue distance, marked the mouth of the world-renowned Maeander, and walked ou, silently wondering whether his future destiny would move in as many curves and serpentine lines as the silvery river.
