Excerpt from Conquerors All In crossing the channel from Southampton to France, Lady Beatrice had proved a better sailor than even her father. Though adverse winds had made the passage more than usually rough and tempestuous, she was as fresh and sparkling when they landed at a small fishing hamlet near the mouth Of the Somme as a flower wet with dew.

Excerpt from More Than Conquerors This series of biographical sketches, published in St. Nicholas, was written for young people. Why have a preface at all, then - a thing young people never read? Well, the preface is a sign-post to their elders to warn them not to follow the road unless it tempts them with its windings or its friendly shade. Yet I hope the book is not distinctly juvenile. I have tried not to write down to my young readers. No short sketch can pretend to be a complete life. The best it can do is to leave a general impres sion of the man, to entice the reader to look fur ther, and to know his hero better. But young people will not read tomes! And some older people have not the patience to read a long life in several thick volumes, even to make a friend.

Excerpt from William the Conqueror Line, even among the conquering kings and their imme diate instruments, their work never takes the shape of the rooting up Of the earlier institutions of the land. Those institutions are modified, sometimes silently by the mere growth Of events, sometimes formally and Of set purpose. Old institutions get new names; new institutions are set up alongside of them. But the Old ones are never swept away; they sometimes die out; they are never abolished. This comes largely of the absorbing and assimilating power Of the island world. But it comes no less of personal character and personal circumstances, and pro-eminently of the personal character of the Nor man Conqueror and of the circumstances in which he found himself.

Excerpt from With Cortes the Conqueror The three different races who played the most prominent parts in the exploration of the New World the English, the French, the Spanish - were actuated to a certain extent by the same motives. They sought for fortune, adventure, liberty and the chance to convert the heathen; but they differed in the degree by which these motives affected them. The Spaniards above all desired gold and what they believed was the saving from hell of thousands of unbaptized souls. Cortes's zeal to convert Montezuma and his people was undoubtedly as sincere as his eagerness for Montezuma's treasure.

Excerpt from In the Days of William the Conqueror The story of William the Conqueror is the story of the man who for more than a quarter of a century was the most prominent personage of western Europe. Into whose hands shall England fall, was one of the two or three great questions of the time, and it was William who solved the problem. Whether or not his claim to the English throne was just, the people and their new sovereign seemed made for each other. The English could follow; William could lead. The English could endure; William could strike the blow that made endurance needless. The English were inclined to be grave and serious; William enjoyed a jest. The English were a little slow in their thinking; William was quick-witted. The English would yield to fate; William was fate itself.

Excerpt from One of Our Conquerors His outcry was no more than the confidential communi cation oi a genial spirit with that distinctive article of his attire. At the same time, for these friendly people about him to share the fun of the annoyance, he looked hastily brightly back, seeming with the contraction of his brows to frown, on the little band of observant Samaritans; in the centre of whom a man who knew himself honourably unclean, perhaps consequently a bit of a political jewel, hearing one of their number confounded for his pains, and by the wearer of a superfine dashing-white waistcoat, was moved to take notice of the total deficiency of gratitude in this kind of gentleman's look and pocket. If we ask for nothing for helping gentlemen to stand upright on their legs, and get it, we expect civility into the bargain. More over, there are reasons in nature why we choose to give Sign of a particular surliness when our wealthy superiors would have us think their condescending grins are cordials. The gentleman's eyes were followed on a second hurried downward grimace, the necessitated wrinkles of which could be stretched by malevolence to a semblance of haughty disgust; reminding us, through our readings in journals, of the wicked overblown Prince Regent and his Court, together with the View taken of honest labour in the mind of supercilious luxury, even if indebted to it freshly for a trifle; and the boar-headed nineteenth-cen tury billow of democratic ire craved the word to be set swelling.

Excerpt from The White Conquerors: A Tale of Toltec and Aztec In the streets of the city the dancing feet of flow er-wreathed youths and maidens tripped noiselessly over the smooth cemented pavements; while their elders watched them, with approving smiles, from their curtained doorways, or the flat flower-gardened roofs, of their houses. Above all these scenes of peaceful merriment rose the gloomy pyramids of many temples, ever-present reminders of the cruel and bloody religion with which the whole fair land was cursed.
