Book Description
Excerpt from Red Spider: A Novel Fifty years ago! Half a century has passed since the writer was a child in the parish where he has laid the scene of this tale. There he had a trusty nurse, and a somewhat romantic story was attached to her life. Faithful, good creature! She was carrying the writer in her arms over a brook by a bridge elevated high above the water, when the plank broke. She at once held up her charge over her head, with both arms, and made no attempt to save herself, thinking only of him, as she fell on the stones and into the water. He escaped wholly unhurt, owing to her devotion. Many years after, the author read a little German story which curiously recalled to him his nurse and her career. When a few years ago he revisited the scenes of his child hood, he thought to recall on paper many and many a recollection of village life in the south-west of England in one of its most still and forgotten corners. So he has taken this thread of story, not wholly original in its initiation, and has altered and twisted it to suit his purpose, and has strung on it sundry pictures of what was beginning to fade half a century ago in Devon. Old customs, modes of thought, of speech, quaint sayings, weird superstitions are all disappearing out of the country, utterly and for ever.

Book Description
Excerpt from Spiders and Rice Pudding How shall I explain it all to you? I have dipped my pen in the ink-bottle six times, and as often carried it to the sheet of foolscap which lies before me, patiently waiting for the proper words to drop from my pen, but they won't - so I may as well tell you that a few days ago, when I was look ing for a roll of pieces to mend my blue cashmere, in the room over the dining-room, I found the cashmere in the wardrobe, and also a spider. It was not an ordinary little spider, but an extraordinary large one. I could not step on him, although I would willingly see any one else do so. Suppose I throw a book at him - no.
