Book Description
Excerpt from In the Desert He had felt more and more deeply that the happiness of his life would be forfeited if he failed to win back the woman who had been dear to him, even as a child, and who had not only authorized him to believe in her love, but speedily to call her his betrothed bride. Fate had willed otherwise They had parted in anger, but he believed that she still cherished him in her mem ory. He at least had not forgotten her a single day, a single hour, and he by no means repented this loyal fidelity; for she was an orphan, and in the cruel time when her parents and her brother, his most intimate friend, had been torn from her, he had vowed to guard her like a precious pledge confided to his care, and never permit her to appeal to him in vain.

Excerpt from The Man of the Desert All the morning the private car had been an object of deep interest to those who lived within Sight, and that was everybody on the plateau; and many and various had been the errands and excuses to go to the station that perchance the occupants of that car might be seen, or a glimpse of the interior of the moving palace; but the silken curtains had remained drawn until after nine O'clock.

Excerpt from This Labyrinthine Life: A Tale of the Arizona Desert We have as yet no conception of the importance of the desert from the point of view of health. We know to some extent what it means to the tuberculous, but it means still more to the overworked, the unhappy, those on the verge of nervous prostration, professional men after a particularly hard siege - those who in any manner have drawn too heavily on their nerve force. It is the place where even in a short sojourn one grows younger, given favoring conditions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Well in the Desert Blue Gulch had but one street, the two sides of which lay at different levels, separated by the wide yawn of the gulch itself, thrusting into the moun tain from the desert below. From where the man stood he commanded a very complete view of the place. In nearly every house was a light, and the shadows thrown upon the canvas walls gave a fair clue to the occupations of those within; so that during the early part of each evening at least neither half of the town need be in any doubt as to how the other half was living. The life and gaiety of the community in relaxa tion seemed to gather upon the upper plane. Across the gulch Lower Broadway lay in compara tive darkness. The man drew back again as a couple of shadowy forms came wavering down the road. One of these carried a lantern, which hung low at his side, revealing the heavy miners' boots of the pair, and casting grotesque shadows up the moun tain-side.
