Book Description
Excerpt from Rookwood, Vol. 1 of 2: A Romance Val than its predecessor. The pruning knife has been used with no sparing hand; but though much has been removed, much I am aware, still remains that was held to be objectionable in the original construction of the story, but which I have found it impossible to obviate. It would have been a less dificult task to re-write the book than partially to remodel it; just as it is easier to build a new house than to repair an old one. I have contented myself with takin down a useless wing or so - with stopping up a window here an there, that looked upon nothing - and having brushed up my tarnished furniture and put my crazy structure somewhat in order, I solicit the reader, with the best grace I can, to do me the favour to ramble through it, in my company. I can show him an antique gallery of portraits - of undoubted originals, some scraps it may be of firded arms, and a sketch or two of characters nut so far remoted from his own time. But he must so far preserve his good breeding, as not to ask me any questions which I may not be prepared to answer; for I am one of those persons who like to have all the talk to themselves -and but seldom condescend to explain anything satisfactorily, pe'cially when interrupted. The reader must therefore content him wlfwith being as credulous as he can contrive to be, and take all for.

Book Description
"Maria Longworth Storer: From Music and Art to Popes and Presidents tells the story of one of Cincinnati's most prominent women activists and socialites, Maria Longworth Storer. A philanthropist and talented artist, known as the founder of Rookwood Pottery, Maria pushed the boundaries of women's involvement in the public sphere and established close diplomatic relationships with a number of religious figures and political leaders, including then president Teddy Roosevelt. When a 1906 scandal inflicted considerable damage on her second husband's and her positions, Maria managed to recover and devote her life to the causes she held dearest--religion, art, and philanthropy. Her activist spirit left a lasting impression and remains an important part of Cincinnati and American history"--

Book Description
Rookwood Volume 1By William Harrison AinsworthThe superstition of a fallen branch affording a presage of approaching death is not peculiar to the family I have mentioned. Many other old houses have been equally favored: in fact, there is scarcely an ancient family in the kingdom without a boding sign. For instance, the Breretons of Brereton, in Cheshire, were warned by the appearance of stocks of trees floating, like the swollen bodies of long-drowned men, upon the surface of a sombre lake--called Blackmere, from the inky color of its waters--adjoining their residence; and numerous other examples might be given. The death-presage of the Breretons is alluded to by Drayton in the "Polyolbion."
