Excerpt from Romantic America The scene in the Spanish mission typifies many a charmed spot where the Old World - doubly picturesque by contrast lives on in the New. We sometimes forget that the hoary ruins and manors of Tidewater Virginia, the half-deserted Georgian villages of New England, the Little Paris of Creole New Orleans, all belong to us as truly as Hoboken or Oshkosh. The large view of the Yosemite Valley typifies our wealth of wild nature. Last year the American people spent something like two hundred millions in seeing Switzerland. We still know next to nothing of our own more splendid Sierras. We grow enthusiastic over small French and German caverns, yet remain ignorant of the stupendous underworld of Kentucky. We make pilgrimages to the colored terraces and geysers of New Zealand, yet will not pause on the way home to see whether Wyoming does not hold in trust a more astonishing museum of natural marvels and beauties. We scramble among Himalayan gorges without realizing that deep in the bosom Of Arizona there waits the supreme vision.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance The world's greatest historians to the present time have sought to put the interest of fiction into their work, but they have been so limited by the narrative style adopted that only a few of the greatest have been even fairly successful. The vast majority of histories never have been and probably never will be read outside of a limited circle of tireless students.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 6 By this change, the long Atlantic reach became English, and the energies of the race began that strenuous westerly advance which enables every American to boast of pioneer blood. The first red frontier extended not a furlong from the ocean rollers; every step westward was made in the face of savage resistance. With isolated exceptions, every town in America was once a frontier village, the streets of which echoed to the war-whoop of the Indian. These outposts maintained themselves against the ferocities of the aborigines by the sheer use of the weapons of war. The struggle with the austerities of nature was only less desperate.

Excerpt from Miss. Nume of Japan: A Japanese-American Romance The fate of an introduction to a book seems not only to fall short of its purpose, but to offend those whose habit it is to criticise before they read. Once I heard an old man say, "It is dangerous to write for the wise. They strike warm hands with form, but shrug a cold shoulder at originality." I do not think, though, that this book was written for the "wise," for the men and women whose frosty judgment would freeze the warm current of a free and almost careless soul. It was written for the imaginative, and they alone are the true lovers of story and song. Onoto Watanna plays upon an instrument new to our ears, quaintly Japanese, an air at times simple and sweet, as tender as the chirrup of a bird in love, and then as wild as the scream of a hawk. Mood has been her teacher; impulse has dictated her style. She has inherited the spirit of the orchard in bloom. Her art is the grace of the wild vine, under no obligation to a gardener, but with a charm that the gardener could not impart. A monogram wrought by nature's accident upon the golden leaf of autumn, does not belong to the world of letters, but it inspires more feeling and more poetry than a library squeezed out of man's tired brain. And this book is not unlike an autumn leaf blown from a forest in Japan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from After Many Days: An Anglo-American Romance To the right of the lane, fields of corn sweep away to the skirts of a distant wood, whose gloomy stretches of fir and pine make fitting contrast for silver birch and youthful oak. At no season of the year is this road unbeautiful. The great hedge is perhaps fairest in its young green glory of the spring; or it is as fair when the giant brambles show cloud on cloud of clustered blossoms, or when the clouds melt and the petals drift like perfumed snow and leave the little berries to grow and blacken and glisten in the yellow autumn sun. One warm summer's day two girls came wandering down the road. Oh, Addice, isn't it true, cried one, that all the biggest blackberries and all the loveliest honeysuckle grow right on the top where we can't reach them?

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 2 Columbus bequeathed to Europe a New World. But he died not knowing the magnitude of his discoveries. Indeed, it was his countryman, John Cabot, sailing in the service of England, who first gazed upon continental America. Still another Italian, Amerigo Vespucci, was to stamp his name across a hemisphere - a name that the wit of philosophers and the fancy of poets could not have chosen more aptly. For America - the name also survives in the German Emmerich and the English Emery - means the Ruler of Work, the King of Toil. It was to the great company of Spanish explorers that the task of tracing the dim outline of the double continents fell. And what dazzling names these men have left on the pages of history! Balboa, Cortez, Pizarro, De Soto, Ponce de Leon, and Coronado! True, it was the insatiable thirst for wealth that led men on; but the credit is none the less theirs. From Vespucci's time their vision grew year by year as their quest for riches hastened their feet, now north to Florida and the Mississippi, now south to Columbia and Venezuela, now west to Yucatan, Mexico, and the expanding Pacific, and thence south once more to the golden glory of Peru. History holds no such chapters as these. The Old World thrust itself upon the New as Greece descended upon Persia, as Rome swept through the nations of antiquity; but with a difference. Through unrecorded ages the two civilizations had grown up apart, each teaching man a measure of his possibilities.

Excerpt from Claire: A Romance of American Nursehood It will not be worth any one's while to try to find the originals of these good people; there are too many of them. The confusion Would be end less. They may be found in and about every house of mercy throughout this broad land. They are the noble ideals who have created themselves in my own mind, revealed their own intense feel ings, illustrated their own psalm of life. That such devoted lives should find the supreme happi ness which crowns mutual love is but the natural sequel that works itself out in the old sweet way, Like music from above. A goodly number of professional experts and severe critics have had i the opportunity to inspect these portraits of their fellow workers and with one accord they have kindly pronounced them most lifelike. If the beautiful lessons taught by such consecration to humanity shall bless other lives and move them to higher, broader and deeper sympathies, the author will be abundantly rewarded.
