'The Honorable Peter Stirling and What People Thought of Him' is a novel written by Paul Leicester Ford. The story begins by introducing us to a man named Mr. Pierce, described as a talkative, silver-tongued man. He is able to discuss various topics and has an idea and theory about everything. Some considered him a tongue despot, meaning he likes to control the conversation and will interrupt others if they try to steer it in a different direction. However, he did face defeat once when he was challenged by a superior conversationalist on a ship, which was a humbling experience for him.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Honorable Peter Stirling and What People Thought of Him Peter was not good looking. He was not even, in a sense, attractive.

Manly the face was, but, except when speaking in unconscious moments, dull and unstriking. A fellow three inches shorter, and two-thirds his weight would have been called tall. Big was the favorite adjective used in describing Peter, and big he was. Had he gone through college ten years later, he might have won un stinted fame and admiration as the full-back on the team, or stroke on the crew. In his time, athletics were but just obtaining, and were not yet approved of either by faculties or families. Shakespeare speaks of a tide in the affairs of men. Had Peter been born ten years later the probabilities are that his name would have beeh in all the papers, that he would have weighed fifty p nuds less, have been cheered by thousands, have beer he idol Of his class, have been a hero, have married the first girl he loved (for heroes, curiously, either marry or die, but never remain bachelors) and would have but as this is a tale of fact, we must not give rein to imagination. To come back to realism, Peter was a hero to nobody but his mother. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
