Peace Manoeuvres
ISBN: 9781517605926 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The scout stood where three roads cut three green tunnels in the pine woods, and met at his feet. Above his head an aged sign-post pointed impartially to East Carver, South Carver, and Carver Centre, and left the choice to him. The scout scowled and bit nervously at his gauntlet. The choice was difficult, and there was no one with whom he could take counsel. The three sun-shot roads lay empty, and the other scouts, who, with him, had left the main column at sunrise, he had ordered back.

Captain Macklin: His Memoirs
ISBN: 9781517604509 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It may seem presumptuous that so young a man as myself should propose to write his life and memoirs, for, as a rule, one waits until he has accomplished something in the world, or until he has reached old age, before he ventures to tell of the times in which he has lived, and of his part in them. But the profession to which I belong, which is that of a soldier, and which is the noblest profession a man can follow, is a hazardous one, and were I to delay until to-morrow to write down what I have seen and done, these memoirs might never be written, for, such being the fortune of war, to-morrow...

Van Bibber, and others. By: Richard Harding Davis (illustrated): novel
ISBN: 9781541317970 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Van Bibber and Others, by Richard Harding Davis (1890), is a collection of short stories that appeared originally in the magazines. The central figure in the majority of them is Van Bibber, a young New Yorker of the mythical "Four Hundred," a charming fellow, combining the exquisiteness of the aristocrat with the sterling virtues of the great American people. His tact is consummate, his ideals of good form unimpeachable, his snobbery entirely well-bred. Having plenty of money, and nothing to do but to be "about town," he is in the way of adventures. Some of these are funny; one or two are...

The Frame Up
ISBN: 9781517216795 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This early work by Richard Harding Davis was originally published in the early 20th century and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Frame Up' is a short story of politics and murder. Davis attended Lehigh University and Johns Hopkins University, but was asked to leave both due to neglecting his studies in favour socialising. During the Second Boer War in South Africa, Davis was a leading correspondent of the conflict. He saw the war first-hand from both parties perspectives and documented it in his publication 'With Both Armies' (1900). He wrote widely...

The Princess Aline (1895) by Richard Harding Davis (Classics)
ISBN: 9781530465187 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 50 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Princess Aline is a sweet love story told with charming and delicate art, in Mr. Davis' own bright way. The heroine, Miss Morris, is a lovable young woman with heaps of common sense, sympathy, wit and humor, so wonderfully and vividly set forth that the reader finds it hard to forgive Carlton for not sooner discovering that he loved her instead of pursuing the Princess Aline in a useless love-chase. Mr. Davis has a teasing way of withholding his secret until the very last moment, but it is easy to forgive him, the result is usually so pleasing. Mr. Davis shows a comprehensive acquaintance...

The Exiles and Other Stories
ISBN: 9781517605995 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The greatest number of people in the world prefer the most highly civilized places of the world, because they know what sort of things are going to happen there, and because they also know by experience that those are the sort of things they like. A very few people prefer barbarous and utterly uncivilized portions of the globe for the reason that they receive while there new impressions, and because they like the unexpected better than a routine of existence, no matter how pleasant that routine may be. But the most interesting places of all to study are those in which the savage and the...

The Boy Scout and Other Stories for Boys
ISBN: 9781515387947 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 86 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A Rule of the Boy Scouts is every day to do some one a good turn. Not because the copy-books tell you it deserves another, but in spite of that pleasing possibility. If you are a true Scout, until you have performed your act of kindness your day is dark. You are as unhappy as is the grown-up who has begun his day without shaving or reading the New York Sun. But as soon as you have proved yourself you may, with a clear conscience, look the world in the face and untie the knot in your kerchief.
