Excerpt from Across the Busy Years, Vol. 1: Recollections and Reflections Something like this is true of biography. Rarely is enough told of the subject's ancestry, of the domestic and social environment in which he was brought up, of the details of his formal education and of other supposedly minor events in his life before he became a character of public significance and importance.

A Busy Year at the Old Squire's
Author: Charles Asbury StephensPublisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 125701059X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
"Like most New England houses built seventy-five years ago, the farmhouse at the old Squire's had been planned without thought of bathing facilities. The family washtub, brought to the kitchen of a Saturday night, and filled with well water tempered slightly by a few quarts from the teakettle, served the purpose. We were not so badly off as our ancestors had been, however, for in 1865, when we young folks went home to live at the old Squire's, stoves were fully in vogue and farmhouses were comfortably warmed. Bathing on winter nights was uncomfortable enough, we thought, but it was not the desperately chilly business that it must have been when farmhouses were heated by a single fireplace."

The Love Affairs of a Bibliomaniac
Author: Eugene FieldPublisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9359323462
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
"The Love Affairs of a Bibliomaniac" is a charming and humorous essay written by Eugene Field, an American author, and journalist in the late 19th century. This fascinating piece is a humorous investigation of bibliomania, or the passion with collecting books, and the intense love affair that bibliophiles have with their prized volumes. Field recounts his own bibliomaniacal experiences, weaving vignettes about his book-hunting exploits and the delight of acquiring rare and valuable copies. He catches the essence of book collecting, depicting it as a passionate and perhaps illogical hobby. Throughout the article, Field introduces readers to the peculiarities and eccentricities of fellow bibliophiles he meets on his voyage, emphasizing the quirks that frequently accompany this reading enthusiasm. His clever and lighthearted writing style makes the article both fascinating and relatable to everyone who has ever been enthralled by the world of books. "The Love Affairs of a Bibliomaniac" not only celebrates the delights of book collecting, but it also provides insight into the unique link that exists between bibliophiles and their prized volumes.
