Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Passing of a Race and More Tales of Western Life The success which attended my first literary effort, The Mystic Spring, has induced me to issue another volume of Western tales. I have adhered as closely as possible to descriptions of the peculiarities of speech and mode of life of the men and women who peopled the Pacific Coast forty or fifty years ago - peculiarities that have engrafted themselves upon society of the present day, and may ever remain prominent features of life in the West.

Download or read book Oreo written by Fran Ross and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneering, dazzling satire about a biracial black girl from Philadelphia searching for her Jewish father in New York City Oreo is raised by her maternal grandparents in Philadelphia. Her black mother tours with a theatrical troupe, and her Jewish deadbeat dad disappeared when she was an infant, leaving behind a mysterious note that triggers her quest to find him. What ensues is a playful, modernized parody of the classical odyssey of Theseus with a feminist twist, immersed in seventies pop culture, and mixing standard English, black vernacular, and Yiddish with wisecracking aplomb. Oreo, our young hero, navigates the labyrinth of sound studios and brothels and subway tunnels in Manhattan, seeking to claim her birthright while unwittingly experiencing and triggering a mythic journey of self-discovery like no other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mystir Spring: And Other Tales of Western Life In 1856, being then very young, I went to reside in California, where I became interested in the Morning Call newspaper as part proprietor and editor. In 1858, disposing of my interest, I joined in a mad rush to the British possessions on the Pacific in search of gold. The country now known as British Columbia was then named New Caledonia. It was a wild and trackless section, inhabited by numerous tribes of savage red men, who were controlled and held in check with difficulty by the wise policy of the Hudson's Bay Co., the nominal rulers. Through all the commercial, political and social changes incidental to pioneer life during the last forty-six years I have resided on the British Pacific Coast. My opportunities for collecting material for this volume have been excellent, for I have had a strangely adventurous and variant career.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jericho Road: A Story of Western Life While reading of the poor fellow who had so hard a time on the road to Jericho, two thousand years ago, I have often wondered what would have happened had not the Good Samaritan come along. Similar accidents have occurred when the Good Samaritan was longed for, but failed to put in an appearance; when priests and Levites passed by in unending procession; when the thieves had such an air of respectability that the victim naturally wondered if a reputation for honesty did not depend more upon profession than upon practice, and where the needed relief came finally from people as low morally as the Samaritan was socially. The true career of the person whom I have called Lem Pankett would be scouted as improbable if I told it as it occurred. It has therefore been relieved of some of its rougher corners and darker shadows; but I believe enough remains to show the risk which society runs in allowing the vicious to take care of the weak. I do not attempt to prove that the weak naturally fall into the hands of the wicked, for every observing person already knows that this is the rule.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from From Dawn to Daylight: Or the Simple Story of a Western Home Sons years since, I prepared the following sketch of the life of a dear friend, with whose history I had been familiar. At the time, my only object was to shorten some of the lonely hours of a tedious convalescence, and to gratify and amuse my children. Nothing could have been further from my thoughts, than trusting myself to the ten der mercies of public Opinion. But months after, a clergy man's wife, visiting in the family, chanced to read the manuscript, and felt that, if published, it might do good by leading laymen to perceive how easily, by kindness, con siderateness and prompt payment, they could strengthen their Pastor's hands, or, on the contrary, paralyze all his efforts and encrgy, by negligence, thoughtlessness and selfishness.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of the West I fear I cannot claim, therefore, any higher motive than to illustrate an era of which Californian history has preserved the incidents more often than the char acter of the actors, an era which the panegyrist was too often content to bridge over with a general com pliment to its survivors, an era still so recent that in attempting to revive its poetry, I am conscious also of awakening the more promc recollections of these same survivors, and yet an era replete with a certain heroic Greek poetry, of which perhaps none were more unconscious than the heroes themselves. And I shall be quite content to have collected here merely the materials for the Iliad that is yet to be sung.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gems of Promise: A Western Story IT was just over the Mexican border that Morgan Tuttle, saddle tramp, found the skeleton. He had grown tired of Mexico and riding for the Rancho Oso. Six months in one place was about all that his wandering spirit could stand, and, be sides, he was the owner oi one thousand pesos, which, were he in the United States, would be the equivalent of about five hundred dollars. He had drawn his pay and started northward to ward the border, riding his snip-nosed bay, Lucifer, and driving ahead of him his pack burro, Mono. And within twelve hours' ride from the line he found the gruesome thing which was destined to Change the wandering current of his life. A great mound of rocks had lured him during the noon rest. Ever a lover of nature in all of her many aspects, he decided during his after-dinner smoke that the view of the wide, wild country through which he was traveling would be unsurpassed if one could climb to the top of the rock fiheap. Hence, while his animals rested, he had begun to climb. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
