Book excerpt: The Great Lone Land A Narrative of Travel and Adventure in the North-West of Ame by William Francis Butler Peace--Rumours of War-Retrenchment--A Cloud in the far West--A Distant Settlement-Personal--The Purchase System--A Cable-gram--Away to the West IT was a period of universal peace over the wide world. There was not a shadow of war in the North, the South, the East, or the West. There was not even a Bashote in South Africa, a Beloochee in Scinde, a Bhoottea, a Burmese, or any other of the many "eses" or "eas" forming the great colonial empire of Britain who seemed capable of kicking up the semblance of a row. Newspapers had never been so dull; illustrated journals had to content themselves with pictorial representations of prize pigs, foundation stones, and provincial civic magnates. Some of the great powers were bent upon disarming; several influential persons of both sexes had decided, at a meeting held for the suppression of vice, to abolish standing armies. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Though sometimes in disgrace with Queen Elizabeth, he was never in favour with James I. Accused of crimes he never committed, he suffered years of imprisonment in the Tower of London, only being set at liberty at last because the King thought it possible that, after all, his belief in the gold of Guiana might be justified. There fore in 1616 he went again, only to return as empty-handed as before. Meanwhile his enemies had been plotting his ruin, and four months after landing in England again he was condemned to death on an old and false charge of treason. He died at the hands of the executioner on October 29, 1618, in Old Palace Yard, Westminster. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Library of Universal Adventure by Sea and Land: Including Original Narratives and Authentic Stories of Personal Prowess and Peril in All the Waters and Regions of the Globe From the Year 79 A. D. To the Year 1888 A. D A casual glance at the contents and their arrangement will give some no tion Of the variety and extent of the work. For the sake of clearness we have distributed the material geographically, and in each division we have given the narratives a chronological sequence, so that the volume is in some sort at once a map and a history, fragmentary of course, but useful, we be lieve, to any reader wishing to place in time and space the great adventurers whose names occur in the stories Of nations. It was part of the pleasure we took in our work that these adventures, which seemed so fragmentary and detached, became more and more distinctly parts of the common life Of the race; and we hope that with the help Of the plan we have adopted, with the dates and the divisions we have used, it will have the same interest for our readers. At the same time we feel that the apparently desultory succession of the narratives will contribute to the delight of those who like to vary the excitements purveyed to them, and who may read the book in sequence with the certainty of a continual change in the character of its contents, from adventure to adventure, although these follow one another in each division with due regard to the order of their occurrence in point of time.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Many Lands and Many People: With One Hundred and Forty-Seven Illustrations A South American storm was descending like a deluge, and the night was closing in a mid-winter night, for the month was July. A man wrapped in a cloak streaming with wet pushed his way through a house in a Peruvian city, until he came to a bed-chamber where a solitary traveler was sitting among his note-books. The city was the capital of Inca civilization - Cuzco, the Rome of the New World. The visitor was Don Juan Sanz of Santo Domingo, a prominent citizen of that place. And the Marco Polo was Mr. Paul Marcoy. "What has got into your head to come out in such weather?" frankly asked the latter. "I have something serious to discuss with you," answered Don Juan, as he took off his water-clogged mantle and seated himself near the table. "A bearer of despatches has just come to me from Lima. He is bound to return tomorrow with the answer which I am asked to make, and, before deciding on that answer, it has occurred to me to see you, to talk with you, and, in a word, to ask a service." "Shall it be a loan of a few hundred thousand piastres for one of your speculations?" "Do not joke: I am talking quite seriously. The service I have to ask will only demand a little of your good-nature and the sacrifice of a few months of your time." "A few months! You are too modest. And what shall I be doing during those few months?" "Nothing but what is very simple. You shall walk about during a part of the day; you will observe; you will take notes; you will replenish your sketch-book. Besides this, you shall eat and drink when you like, you shall rest when you are lazy, and when evening comes you shall sleep if you feel like it." "But that is precisely what I am doing here." "No doubt. I only imagined that in order to render me a good turn you would be willing to do it elsewhere." "Elsewhere? What is the locality of 'elsewhere'? Come, let me see what is asked of me. What is all this about?" "It is about filling a vacancy in one of my enterprises." "You forget that I know nothing of commerce." Noris it a commercial operation I ask you to take part in, but simply some preliminaries which I hope will lead to one. I must explain.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Travels and Adventures of Celebrated Travelers in the Principal Countries of the World Tee whole world are now near neighbors. Only a short time since, he who had circumnavigated the globe was looked upon with wonder, as among the favored of mortals. Now, he whose dwelling is the nearest to your own, may, within a few months, have visited the uttermost parts of the earth, and the fact not considered sufficiently novel for your knowledge. With rapidly increasing intercourse all the world is changing. Commerce, the great civilizer, is introducing us to everybody and everybody to us. Such a general shaking of hands never was before seen since Father Time commenced his travels. Such a universal interchange of ideas never entered the conception of the wisest of the ancients. Such a magnificent clearing was never before opened to the Pioneer in Enterprise. Everybody is learning something from everybody. Civilized nations are consequently growing more liberal and more humane, and those not civilized are fast becoming so.
