Book Description
Excerpt from The Western Monthly Magazine, Vol. 3: A Continuation of the Illinois Monthly Magazine; From January to December, 1835 None but the purest motives should be attributed to him whose mental endowments, which would have secured lasting fame if enlisted in the interests of secular literature, have been employed in the opprobrious cause of tracing to their origin vitiated religious sentiments. Such has been the ungrateful, but eminently beneficial, task, which has been achieved by the unknown author of the Natural History of Enthusiasm - whose talented production was noticed in a previous number of the Magazine. The laborious employment of collecting and arranging the materials for that and two kindred works - Sat arday Evening, and Fanaticism - engaged the author, at inter vals, for more than twelve years. Such performances would have justified the expenditure of thrice that amount of time and effort. Those works will be admired, not only in the pre sent age, but in distant periods, by those who delight to witness the operations of a gigantic intellect tearing away the massy pillars that have long supported the edifice ofa false, and con sequently pernicious religion.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Californian, Vol. 3: A Western Monthly Magazine; January June, 1881 As I look back it seems like the bright and the dark sides of a dream. From out the heart of June was born the fairest scene that ever went unframed. The little valley lay, an uncombed lawn, between the sloping forests; and a small. Stream, babbling and tinkling, lost a mimic battle-shout as it ran somewhere between en trance and outlet, gleaming like a string of wa ter-pearls, shut in between banks. The milk ers, at sunrise, went in among the cows, call ing and soothing and laughing, and I took my cup, with the webs of sleep still tangling across my eyes, and, listening to the plash of the stream, looked off down the valley. A herd of antelopes sped away out of vision, frightened at the echoes of their own retreat. The dark verd ure of the forest swept up to the skies that lay beyond, and miles and miles away rose the beautiful Mount St. Francisco, his head hoary with snow. In my Child-heart I bowed before that wondrous mountain and did him rever ence. He seemed like God, weird and strange and set apart; a veil-like atmosphere wound about him like a garment of holiness; the snow was upon his breast like a beard. The whole world seemed filled with happiness and plenty. Months after I returned to the spot. I re member that I was hungry. Dry leaves skip ped and danced about, and a sharp wind swirled through the little valley. My clothes were old and worn, and I should have liked a shawl to wrap around me. Somewhat dwarfed by greater that I had seen, there was Mount St. Francisco, with a sheet of rain lying between us. He was gray and dull, and his glory was dim med. The little stream was gathering itself for winter. I was filled with a sense of desolation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
