Book Description
Excerpt from A Woodside Reminiscence IN the year 1914, at the end of a winter's day in Springfield, Massachusetts, having completed the business which I had in hand, and not desiring to return to the home of the friend with whom I was visiting, at so early an hour, I wandered along the main street of the city, towards the outskirts. Seeing a sign Antique Furniture displayed over the entrance to an old-fashioned colonial house, I wandered in - more with the idea of escaping the cold air and falling snow than with any expectation of finding anything of particular interest. As I entered, I saw seated by a stove at the farther end of the room, two men evidently well advanced in years. One of them came forward and in a very courteous man ner asked how he could serve me. I replied that I was idly looking about and if he would grant me the privilege of looking over what he had, though I probably would not purchase anything, I should appreciate his courtesy. He immediately replied that I should make myself at home and returned to his friend by the stove. I wandered around the place, seeing the usual assort ment displayed in places of that character - composed mostly of old-fashioned warming pans, flax wheels, and irons, etc. Finally, arriving close to where the two men were seated, I heard the proprietor say to his visitor: Do you expect to go back again to that country? To which the visitor replied. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Woodside, the North End of Newark, N. J, Vol. 1: Its History, Legends and Ghost Stories, Gathered From the Records and the Older Inhabitants Now Living I believe that those of long ago who wrote books frequently began with an apology to the gentle reader, and I am inclined to do likewise, or at least to rise and explain. The fact is, this narrative was originally undertaken merely as a family reminiscence, but Mr. C. C. Hine's life was so interwoven with the later life of Woodside that what was intended as a brief sketch to illustrate a series of photographs has gradually grown into a book covering the story of the region now known as Woodside as completely as I have been able to gather it. This will account for the somewhat personal view frequently indulged in and for some of the minor de tails.

Book Description
From the masterful David Almond comes a joyful, wistful story of boyhood, running, and tales of days gone by, in a beautiful gift edition illustrated in full color. Liam just wants to go out running with his mates—the Junior Great North Run is not far away, and there’s training to be done. But Mam needs him today, to help old Harry clear out his house. And Harry knows a thing or two about running. When he was a lad, he says, he ran from Newcastle to South Shields. “But Harry,” says Mam, “it’s thirteen miles!” Harry grins. “Different days,” he says. Here is the story of that day: of sweltering heat, clattering boots, briny sea air, and the heavenly taste of ice cream; the day when Harry and his pals ran and ran and ran through the blazing sunlight all the way to the sea.
