Product Description: To the eye of an onlooker Captain Dieppe's circumstances afforded high spirits no opportunity, and made ordinary cheerfulness a virtue which a stoic would not have disdained to own. Fresh from the failure of important plans; if not exactly a fugitive, still a man to whom recognition would be inconvenient and perhaps dangerous; with fifty francs in his pocket, and his spare wardrobe in a knapsack on his back; without immediate prospect of future employment or a replenishment of his purse; yet by no means in his first youth or of an age when men love to begin the world utterly afresh; in few words, with none of those inner comforts of the mind which make external hardships no more than a pleasurable contrast, he marched up a long steep hill in the growing dusk of a stormy evening, his best hope to find, before he was soaked to the skin, some poor inn or poorer cottage where he might get food and beg shelter from the severity of the wind and rain that swept across the high ground and swooped down on the deep valleys, seeming to assail with a peculiar, conscious malice the human figure which faced them with unflinching front and the buoyant step of strength and confidence...read more

Product Description: A Change of Air

Product Description: Countless are the stories told of the sayings that Count Antonio spoke and of the deeds that he did when he dwelt an outlaw in the hills. For tales and legends gather round his name thick as the berries hang on a bush, and with the passage of every succeeding year it grows harder to discern where truth lies and where the love of wonder, working together with the sway of a great man's memory, has wrought the embroidery of its fancy on the plain robe of fact...read more

Product Description: This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work.

Up to this moment, the Governor, Lord Eynesford, and his wife had enjoyed their reign. The Governor agreed heartily with measures introduced by the ministry; and his relations with the government and Sir Robert Perry, its chief, had been based on reciprocal liking and respect -- for they were most of them gentlemen and all of them respectable. And Lady Eynesford's discerning approval of all involved had meant a stellar season at their table. Suddenly, in the midst of an apparently peaceful session, came what the Governor considered an unhallowed combination -- between a discontented section of Perry's party and the Opposition under Medland. Now the Government was in defeat, and the resignation of Sir Robert made inevitable the rise of Mr. Medland -- a thoroughly unsatisfactory outcome -- not least to Lady Eynseford. English romantic novelist Sir Anthony Hope Hawkins (1863-1933), writing as Anthony Hope, and famous for his tales from the corridors of power, tells of Medford's popular but tumultuous rise -- to be threatened by riot and tragedy -- in Half a Hero.
