Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of Stanley Houghton, Vol. 3 of 3 The scene is laid in the South Cheshire country town of Danesbridge. It is a late autumn evening, chilly and wet. The stage represents an old-fashioned room with wooden beams across the ceiling and walls half panelled. In the middle of the back wall is a large bay window, the panes covered with dark green curtains. Nearest the spectator, on his left, is a door leading to the other part of the house, and farther away a large and roomy fireplace. In the back, to the right of the window, is a door opening into a small hall. From this hall the outer door, which is visible, opens on to the street. In the hall is a hat-stand with a coat, a couple of hats, and an umbrella. An old-fashioned bureau, on which is a large worn Bible, books, papers, and a file of bills, stands in the bay window. On the wall to the right of the spectator a large dresser-sideboard, bearing some old blue and white pottery. By the fire an armchair, another chair, and a small table covered with papers, books, pen, and ink. In the centre of the stage a large oval dining-table covered with a green, gold, and brown cloth. The half nearest the door is spread with a white tray-cloth, and supper for one is laid. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of Stanley Houghton, Vol. 1 of 3 William Stanley Houghton was born, an only son with one sister, at Ashton-upon-Mersey, in Cheshire, on 22nd February 1881. He sprang from an old Lancashire family, originally settled at Preston, of which town he was an hereditary freeman. Down to the beginning of the eighteenth century the name in the rolls of the Preston Guild is spelt 'Hoghton': between the Guilds of 1702 and 1722 the 'u' crept in, and the name henceforth appears as Houghton. It is pronounced Hawton. As a boy he was delicate, and, though no specific ailment manifested itself apart from an attack of chorea, suffered from recurring periods of a kind of influenza accompanied by a high temperature and followed by prostration. His ill-health was, together with his parents' changes of residence, responsible for his migrations from school to school. He was educated successively at the Bowdon College, the Stockport Grammar School, the Wilmslow Grammar School, and the Manchester Grammar School. For some time he resided at Wilmslow, a Cheshire suburb of Manchester, with which another famous dramatist, Mr. Hubert Henry Davies, had early associations.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Stanley Buxton, Vol. 3 of 3: Or, the Schoolfellows Buxton, on leaving his friends, returned immediately to his chambers, where he had scarcely seated himself, when, much to his amazement, Mr. Scrutiner came in. "You will be surprised," said he, "that I have come here at this hour, but I have been dining in the city, and could not pass without calling, so much have I been vexed by what took place last night.
