Book Description
Excerpt from In Bad Hands and Other Tales, Vol. 3 of 3 That ride home was very silent, and almost solemn. The shadows in the carriage seemed part of the gloom about my new life - now that the light of the old, as I have said already, had gone away for good. I was restless and disquieted for all my grave demeanour, and I sat and looked before me and tried to think it out. As if all the thinking in the world could have helped me! Suddenly, and when we were within a street or two of home, I said, 'You never mentioned this Monsieur Danano to me, Cicely.'

Excerpt from In Bad Hands, Vol. 2 of 3: And Other Tales It's not as if you haven't been sensibly brought up, ' said Luke, gravely, or were one of those wenches in the village. It's just the sort 0' thing I can't abide in man or woman, Peggy; hardly in a child. I can't abide it.' Then don't abide it, ' said Peggy, pertly; 'that doesn't matter to anybody, I suppose.' I should hope it would matter to you, ' he said tenderly, now, and if it don't matter what I say or think, why, you're not my Peggy, but some other lass who's come out of My Lady's Chapel instead of yourself.'

Excerpt from In Bad Hands, Vol. 1 of 3: And Other Tales Marsh Walk was the highway of the poorest poor - and the shopkeepers were, as a rule, very poor too, to match their customers. Names were always changing over the shop-fronts in Marsh Walk, and only the publicans and pawn brokers were old established and waxed fat on people's thirst or people's troubles. One of the poorest Shops in this neighbourhood to which we direct our reader's attention was Mr. Broadbrook's - and it was always a matter of grave speculation how Mr. Broadbrook lived and kept house and home together on easy shaving at a half-penny and gents and ladies hair cut at three-pence, ' or, cut and curled for the sum of fourpence, paid in advance, to save unnecessary disputes, or the fatigue of Opening credit accounts.

Book Description
Excerpt from Under the Will, Vol. 3 of 3: And Other Tales The friendship between Guy Newton and myself dated from the first day we met at college; and when we parted, after our last term, we could look back upon no interruption to its pleasant course. On that last night we sat long together in my room. It was our usual lounging place, not only because my lameness prevented my going about much, but because Guy always said it was pleasanter to sit among my books and pictures than among his pipes and spurs.

Book Description
Gregorio Cortez Lira, a ranchhand of Mexican parentage, was virtually unknown until one summer day in 1901 when he and a Texas sheriff, pistols in hand, blazed away at each other after a misunderstanding. The sheriff was killed and Gregorio fled immediately, realizing that in practice there was one law for Anglo-Texans, another for Texas-Mexicans. The chase, capture, and imprisonment of Cortez are high drama that cannot easily be forgotten. Even today, in the cantinas along both sides of the Rio Grande, Mexicans sing the praises of the great "sheriff-killer" in the ballad which they call "El Corrido de Gregorio Cortez." Américo Paredes tells the story of Cortez, the man and the legend, in vivid, fascinating detail in "With His Pistol in His Hand," which also presents a unique study of a ballad in the making. Deftly woven into the story are interpretations of the Border country, its history, its people, and their folkways.
