Book Description
Excerpt from The Queen of the Pirate Isle I first knew her as the Queen of the Pirate Isle. To the best of my recollection she had no reasonable right to that title. She was only nine years old, inclined to plumpness and good humour, deprecated violence and had never been to sea. Need it be added that she did not live in an island and that her name was "Polly." Perhaps I ought to explain that she had already known other experiences of a purely imaginative character.

Book Description
Excerpt from A First Family of Tasajara: The Queen of the Pirate Isle Ned Billings momentarily raised his head and shoulders depressed in the back of his wooden armchair, glanced wearily around said, You bet, it 's no slouch of a storm, and then lapsed again with further extended legs and an added sense of comfort. Here the third figure, which had been leaning listlessly against the shelves, putting aside the arm of a swaying overcoat that seemed to be emptily embracing him, walked slowly from behind the counter to the door, examined its fastenings, and gazed at the prospect. He was the owner of the store, and the view was a familiar one, a long stretch of treeless waste before him meeting an equal stretch of dreary sky above, and night hover ing somewhere between the two. This was indicated by splashes of darker shadow as if washed in with india ink, and a lighter low lying streak that might have been the hori zon, but was not. To the right, on a line with the front door of the store, were several, scattered, widely dispersed objects, that, al though vague in outline, were rigid enough in angles to suggest sheds or barns, but cer tainly not trees. There 's a heap more wet to come afore the wind goes down, he said, glancing at the sky. Hark to that, now!
