The Trumpet-Major
The Trumpet-Major – Thomas Hardy
The reader of Mr. Hardy’s novel, “The Trumpet Major,” will at once ask himself, “Is not this author making a brave struggle against the scepticism, the pessimism that have been assailing him? Will not the optimism of the poet and idealist finally conquer the pessimism of the realist?” If Mr. Hardy had died after writing “The Trumpet Major” the last question might well have been answered in the affirmative. Few more charming, spontaneous, wholesome stories than this have ever been written by an English novelist. Sweet Anne Garland may well be set by Sweet Anne Page, and her two devoted swains, fickle Bob Loveday, the sailor, and staunch John Loveday, the Trumpet Major, are worthy … Read more.../Mehr lesen ...

Franklin County, Ohio: A Collection Of Reminiscences Of The Early Settlement
Franklin County, Ohio: A Collection Of Reminiscences Of The Early Settlement – William T. Martin
It is the design of this book to preserve for the people of Franklin County an imperishable record of its early history — now existing only in scattering and detached papers and records, which are every year wasting away. To write the history of a single county, may to some appear like a very small business; while to others it is considered very desirable that someone should do so in every county. How else are the names and memory of our early settlers and friends to be preserved? And who is there that would not be pleased to look back, or to have his children … Read more.../Mehr lesen ...

Essential Buddhist Discourses
Essential Buddhist Discourses – Henry Clarke Warren
This book contains the most important passages selected from the Buddhist Sacred Books. The aim of the present work is to take different ideas and conceptions found in Pâli writings, and present them to the reader in English. Translation has been the means employed as being the most effectual, and the order pursued is in the main that of the Buddhist “Three Jewels” (in Pâli, Ti-Ratana), to wit, The Buddha, the Doctrine, and the Order. The selections of the first chapter are on The Buddha; next follow those which deal chiefly with the Doctrine; while others concerning the Order and secular life constitute the closing chapter of the book.
