'You will do as you are ordered or forfeit everything, ' she cried, in shrill tones, that were a little frightened. 'Which means that you are not wanted very particularly here, and had better go, ' added Ebenezer sourly. 'Take this post or leave it. It makes little difference to me; but idle and enjoy yourself here any longer, you shall not.'[...]."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Under the Chinese Dragon: A Tale of Mongolia Mr. Ebenezer Clayhill was a man who impressed his personality upon one, so that those who had once obtained but a passing glimpse of him could not fail but recognise him, however long afterwards. 'Fust it's his nose what strikes yer, ' had declared old Isaac Webster, when ensconced with his bosom friends of an evening down in the snug parlour of the 'Three Pigeons.' 'It's just the most almighty one as ever I seed, and I've seed a power of noses, I have, Mr. Jarney.' He sniffed and looked across at that individual, as if he challenged him to disprove the statement, or even to doubt it; for Jarney was a cross-grained fellow, an old weather-beaten boatman, into whose composition quite a considerable quantity of salt seemed to have been absorbed. The man was short in stature and in manner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: F. S. Brereton's 'Under the Chinese Dragon: A Tale of Mongolia' is a gripping historical novel that transports readers to the exotic and mysterious land of Mongolia during the early 20th century. Through vivid imagery and detailed descriptions, the author brings to life the political tensions, cultural clashes, and strategic alliances that characterized the region at that time. Brereton's meticulous attention to historical accuracy and his ability to weave a compelling narrative make this book a valuable contribution to the genre of historical fiction. F. S.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Under the Chinese Dragon - A Tale of Mongolia: Look inside the book: He was some fifty yards distant, so that a clear view of him was to be obtained, and though Ebenezer had ventured to term the youth hulking, there were few who would have agreed with him; for David Harbor was slim, if anything, and, as well as it is possible to judge of a youth when mounted, of a good height. ...His head high, a queer sinking at the heart, but his courage undaunted for all that, he pedalled swiftly through the village of Effington, nodded to the sour old salt Jarney, who, by the way, always had a smile for David, sped past the 'Three Pigeons' public-house, where the local tittle-tattle of the place was dispensed, together with ale, and was soon out in the open country.

The man was short in stature and in manner. There was an acidity about his voice which made him the reverse of popular, though when he held forth in the cosy parlour of the public-house there were few who failed to listen; for Jarney had travelled. Unlike Isaac Webster, he had not been a stay-at-home all his days, but had seen things and people which were strange for the most part to the old cronies who gathered together of an evening. No one dare dispute Jarney's statements, for to do so was to lay oneself open to a course of scathing, biting sarcasm, in which Jarney excelled.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young David Harbor, an excellent horseman, had returned home to hear the final reading of his father’s will. Harbor senior had left England bound for China three years earlier and, based on reports, it was concluded had been attacked and killed by boxer rebels and had not been heard of since. Out of a vast fortune, David was left a miniscule amount for schooling and education up to the age of twenty-one and after which he was to inherit a mere two thousand pounds. David challenged the will which resulted in a blazing after a row during which he was told he was not wanted in the house anymore. The quarrel was about the remainder of the estate to which he believed his step-mother and the lawyer were conspiring to defraud him. David came away determined to make his own way in the world. It hadn’t taken him long to realise he was dependent solely upon himself. He made his way to London to find work to earn a passage to China, to find his father and expose his conniving step-mother. During his three years away, David had maintained close correspondence with his father and had kept a log of the roads travelled and places he had visited and as a result knew where to start the search. Will David journey via the Silk Road or will he make a more traditional sea voyage? And what of the beautiful Charlotte, will she wait for David?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A very readable account of the protracted and ultimately unsuccessful efforts of the Song, Xia, and Jin dynasties to defend China from the Mongols.”—StrategyPage Defending Heaven brings together, for the first time in one volume, the complete histories of the wars the Jin, Song, Xia, and Ming dynasties fought against the Mongols. Lasting nearly two centuries, these wars, fought to defend Chinese civilization against a brutal and unrelenting foe, pitted personal heroics against the inexorable Mongol war machine and involved every part of the Chinese state. The resistance of the Chinese dynasties to the Khans is a complex and rich story of shifting alliances and political scheming, vast armies and navies, bloody battles and an astonishing technological revolution. The great events of China’s Mongol war are described and analyzed, detailing their immediate and later implications for Chinese history. In this excellent new book, James Waterson tackles this fascinating subject with characteristic verve and skill. Setting the Mongol war in the wider context of China’s ancient and almost perpetual conflict with the northern nomads, it sheds light on the evolution of China’s military society and the management, command, and control of the army by the Chinese state. “An excellent contribution not only to the study of the Mongol Empire but also to military history . . . Anyone interested in medieval warfare will find Defending Heaven of interest.”—Professor Timothy May, in De Re Militari
