Excerpt from The Pedlar, Vol. 2 of 3: A Tale of Emigration There was more whispering inside the shop parlour, together with bustle and noise, as of a hasty removal of various articles, coupled with the cough of an old man, seemingly afflicted with influenza. Want to buy a walking-stick! Bawled the impatient Englishman. Corning, coming, sir; dear me! This cough racks me terribly, broke forth in feeble tones, as the door opened, and in company with a great deal of tobacco smoke, appeared an infirm old man, in connection with a demure-looking quaker of singularly mild demeanour.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Pedlar, Vol. 3 of 3: A Tale of Emigration The baronet was placed in bed by the aid of the negro, the doctor, and Clavering. Mrs. Haggles wished to render some assistance, but Carolina put a stop to her attempt by pushing her away; so, biting her lips in vexation, hatred, and fear, she stood on one side trembling and sobbing, and mustering up her wits for an attack upon the pity and consideration of Clavering when an opportunity should offer. Clavering was very warmly welcomed by the doctor to the home of his ancestors; sincere in deed was the welcome; for since Lieutenant Gorgon had tenanted the hall, his conduct had been anything but in accordance with his antici pated wealth and station; so that the families that dwe'lt in the neighbourhood had avoided his society.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Pedlar, Vol. 1 of 3: A Tale of Emigration Although the majority of us in this eh lightened age are comparatively far advanced in geographical knowledge, our ideas of the western world may be said to be associated principally with its cities, with which we are in constant communication. To many Eu ropeans, America, with its boundless prairies, its interminable forests, and extended plains, is little known. In the progress of civilization the poor aborigines of North America are be coming a race of the past, and the appearance of a red warrior in one of the cities of the west.

Book Description
Between the late 1700s and the 1920s, nearly one-third of the world’s Jews emigrated to new lands. Crossing borders and often oceans, they followed paths paved by intrepid peddlers who preceded them. This book is the first to tell the remarkable story of the Jewish men who put packs on their backs and traveled forth, house to house, farm to farm, mining camp to mining camp, to sell their goods to peoples across the world. Persistent and resourceful, these peddlers propelled a mass migration of Jewish families out of central and eastern Europe, north Africa, and the Ottoman Empire to destinations as far-flung as the United States, Great Britain, South Africa, and Latin America. Hasia Diner tells the story of millions of discontented young Jewish men who sought opportunity abroad, leaving parents, wives, and sweethearts behind. Wherever they went, they learned unfamiliar languages and customs, endured loneliness, battled the elements, and proffered goods from the metropolis to people of the hinterlands. In the Irish Midlands, the Adirondacks of New York, the mining camps of New South Wales, and so many other places, these traveling men brought change—to themselves and the families who later followed, to the women whose homes and communities they entered, and ultimately to the geography of Jewish history.

Book Description
On its first appearance in 1957, Hugh and Graham Greene's The Spy's Bedside Book provoked a storm of interest, and, perhaps unsurprisingly, 100 copies were bought by East German Intelligence. This classic anthology, with a new introduction by the former head of MI5, Stella Rimington, includes stories by some of the great writers on spying and many practitioners, including Ian Fleming and John Buchan, Sir Robert Baden-Powell and Belle Boyd, Walter Schellenberg and Major André, Sir Paul Dukes and Vladimir Petrov, and. from the golden age of mystery and suspense, William Le Queux and E. Phillips Oppenheim. There are also some unexpected figures: William Blake, D.H. Lawrence and Thomas Mann, all suspected of spying in three great wars. How can you hide messages in a boiled egg? Why should you always put pepper in your vodka when in Russia? Answers to these questions and much more can be found in this thrilling collection, which will enthral readers once again with its tales of espionage from a bygone era.
