Excerpt from The New Exodus: A Study of Israel in Russia Edmund burke confessed, over a century ago, that he knew not the method of drawing up an indict ment against a whole people. The task is no easier now than it was in 177 5. Moreover, the world's jury, grown callous to sensation and wearied with ever-multiplying claims upon its sympathies, takes, in these latter times, a deal of moving. Not even Burke risen from the dead could hold its undivided attention for a second four days' speech. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Seth's Brother's Wife: A Study of Life in the Greater New York"Ef ther' ain't a flare-up in this haouse 'fore long, I miss my guess," said Alvira, as she kneaded the pie-crust, and pulled it out between her floury fingers to measure its consistency. "Ole Sabriny's got her back up this time to stay.""Well, let 'em flare, says I. 'Taint none o' aour business, Alviry.""I knaow, Milton; but still it seems to me she might wait at least till th' corpse was aout o' th' haouse.""What's thet got to dew with it?"The callousness of the question must have grated upon the hired-girl, for she made no reply, and slapped the dough over on the board with an impatient gesture.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Frederic (1856-98) was an American journalist and novelist. After leaving school at 15, he worked for four years as a photographic touch-up artist and later became a reporter. By 1882 he was editor of the Albany Evening Journal and two years later moved to England as London correspondent of the New York Times, a position he held for the rest of his life. After several earlier stories the publication of The Damnation of Theron Ware (1896) and Gloria Mundi (1898) saw his talent as a novelist fully recognised.

Excerpt from The Market-Place: A NovelHis triumph was so sweeping and comprehensive as to be somewhat shapeless to the View. He had a sense of fascinated pain when he tried to define to himself what its limits would probably be. Vistas of unchecked, expand ing conquest stretched away in every direction. He held at his mercy everything within sight. Indeed, it rested entirely with him to say whether there should be any such thing as mercy at all - and until he chose to utter the restraining word the rout of the vanquished would go on with multiplying terrors and ruin. He could crush and torture and despoil his enemies until he was tired. The responsibility of having to decide when he would stop grinding their faces might come to weigh upon him later on, but he would not give it room in his mind to night.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
