Book Description
Excerpt from Autobiography of Lorenzo Waugh I may say to you that, through the greater portion of my life, I have been much guided and influenced in my acts and doings by the clear and abid ing impressions made on my mind; first having always thought closely, and prayed the Great Spirit to give me light, and if duty be clearly pointed out to give wisdom and strength to do it, to do it fully and faithfully} and then trusting in God for all the results. I have had the impression of late, that I should try to write and pub lish for you a little sketch of my life, so that 'when I am gone from this world, some of the children may possibly be helped by something I may tell them, to try and be good, and so to have the better chance for useful ness, and for long life, and for happiness in this life and in the world to come. When I tell you, as I can in truth to-day, that I am now very happy, I am sure you will like to know something of how I have got along, and where I have been, and what I have done all along these more than seventy years of my life. Of course, I can only write you a sketch, but will try and give you a true and faithful one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Autobiography of Lorenzo Waugh Dear Children: For some time I have been thinking very seriously of all the happy times I have enjoyed with the children. And more especially have I been feeling serious under the clear conviction of my own mind that these happy times and associations with the dear children are very soon to close with me, and forever as far as this world is concerned, being now in the seventy-fourth year of my age. I may say to you that, through the greater portion of my life, I have been much guided and influenced in my acts and doings by the clear and abiding impressions made on my mind; first having always thought closely, and prayed the Great Spirit to give me light, and if duty be clearly pointed out to give wisdom and strength to do it, to do it fully and faithfully; and then trusting in God for all the results. I have had the impression of late, Chat I should try to write and publish for you a little sketch of my life, so that when I am gone from this world, some of the children may possibly be helped by something I may tell them, to try and be good, and so to have the better chance for usefulness, and for long life, and for happiness in this life and in the world to come.

And so, under my old rule of thought and prayer, and clear impression of duty, I will commence to-day, March 22, 1882.

The Loved One
Author: Evelyn Waugh
Publisher: Hachette+ORM
ISBN: 0316216488
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
"A work of art as rich and subtle and unnerving as anything its author has ever done" (New Yorker), The Loved One is Evelyn Waugh's cutting satire of 1940s California and the Anglo-American cultural divide. Following the death of a friend, the poet and pets' mortician Dennis Barlow finds himself entering the artificial Hollywood paradise of the Whispering Glades Memorial Park. Within its golden gates, death, American-style, is wrapped up and sold like a package holiday--and Dennis gets drawn into a bizarre love triangle with Aimée Thanatogenos, a naïve Californian corpse beautician, and Mr. Joyboy, a master of the embalmer's art. Waugh's dark and savage satire depicts a world where reputation, love, and death cost a very great deal.
