Excerpt from Bits of Biography, or Interesting Stories of Interesting People Their mother secured the release of her sons, but two days later Robert died in her arms, of smallpox con tracted in the British camps. Andrew also passed through a long illness caused by the same disease. And soon after this their brave little mother died of ship fever caught while tending the sick on the prison-vessels at Charleston. This left Andrew an orphan at the age of sixteen, penniless and alone in this big, cold world. But this brave-spirited boy would succeed no matter how sad or hard were the circumstances. Difficulties are the stepping-stones to success, and this truth was clearly demonstrated in the remainder of Andrew's life. It is said of him that the secret of his success was that he always did his best. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Fifty Famous People: A Book of Short Stories One of the best things to be said of the stories in this volume is that, although they are not biographi cal, they are about real persons who actually lived and performed their parts in the great drama of the world's history. Some of these persons were more famous than others, yet all have left enduring footprints on the sands of time, and their names will not cease to be remembered. In each of the stories there is a basis of truth and an ethical lesson which cannot fail to have a wholesome influence; and each possesses elements of interest which, it is believed, will go far towards prov ing the fallibility of the doctrine that children find delight only in tales of the imaginative and unreal. The fact that there are a few more than fifty famous people mentioned in the volume may be credited to the author's to give good measure.

Excerpt from Chat About Celebrities: Or the Story of a Book Journalists, from the very nature of their profession, are brought in direct contact with the celebrities of their time. The reporter of the speeches of the great statesman finds that magnate deferential and anxious that his utterances shall be given in the most effective manner in the newspaper column; the great actor, artist, and inventor, all desire that their productions should be presented in the most favorable light, and hence lose no time in waiting upon the newspaper editor to that end. An active experience of nearly fifty years in journalism has proved the truth of the above to the author, and the recollections and reminiscences here given are a record of the past that it is thought may prove interesting to the reader of to-day, including as they do many personal remembrances of prominent members of the literary, dramatic, and other professions of the past half century.

Excerpt from The Players Blue Book In compiling The Players Blue Book the aim has been to supply a series of photographs and short biographies of those actors and actresses best known at the present time and to furnish in convenient form a souvenir of this age of the drama in America from the view point of those who interpret it. It is not meant to be a critical work, nor a work of reference, though accuracy has been sought after above all else. Information about the people of whom the book tells has been obtained from the people themselves, though in a few cases where this information was found to be too meager, other sources have been questioned. The vain imaginings of press agents have been carefully eliminated, and the attempt has been to present the matter in an attractive form and to say as much as possible in the space alloted to each biography. Of course, in a work of this kind it is well nigh impossible to please every one. Some names may have been omitted which by right should have place, and other names added which, in the opinion of some, should have been left out. It has been the object of the compiler to present those who have by their efforts and talents found place in the front ranks of the profession and to give facts without prejudice. When it has been possible to procure well authenticated anecdotes or bits of life history not exactly bearing upon theatrical experience but of an interesting nature, these have been briefly told, in the belief that dry information is not digestible without a sauce of story. The compiler wishes to thank the members of the profession, managers, and others who have assisted in making the completion of this work possible, and to acknowledge his gratitude especially to those whose portraits and biographies appear herein.
