So blindly were they in love, that they considered their marriage their greatest asset. The rest of the world, as represented by mutual friends, considered it the only thing that could be urged against either of them. While single, each had been popular. As a bachelor, young "Champ" Carter had filled his modest place acceptably.

The Congo and Coasts of Africa
ISBN: 9781517603830 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 94 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. No matter how often one sets out, "for to admire, and for to see, for to behold this world so wide," he never quite gets over being surprised at the erratic manner in which "civilization" distributes itself; at the way it ignores one spot upon the earth's surface, and upon another, several thousand miles away, heaps its blessings and its tyrannies. Having settled in a place one might suppose the "influences of civilization" would first be felt by the people nearest that place. Instead of which, a number of men go forth in a ship and carry civilization as far away from that spot as the winds...

Marie Gessler, known as Marie Chaumontel, Jeanne d'Avrechy, the Countess d'Aurillac, was German. Her father, who served through the Franco-Prussian War, was a German spy. It was from her mother she learned to speak French sufficiently well to satisfy even an Academician and, among Parisians, to pass as one. Both her parents were dead. Before they departed, knowing they could leave their daughter nothing save their debts, they had had her trained as a nurse. But when they were gone, Marie in the Berlin hospitals played politics, intrigued, indiscriminately misused the appealing, violet eyes....

It is a way temptation has. Whenever I swear off drinking invariably I am invited to an ushers' dinner. Whenever I am rich, only the highbrow publications that pay the least, want my work. But the moment I am poverty-stricken the MANICURE GIRL'S MAGAZINE and the ROT AND SPOT WEEKLY spring at me with offers of a dollar a word. Temptation always is on the job. When I am down and out temptation always is up and at me.

Der tollkühne Reiter
ISBN: 9783948114268 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Richard Harding Davis (1864 - 1916), dem US-amerikanischen Schriftsteller und Journalisten, gerieten alle seine Stories und Erzählungen zu authentischen Lebensbildern seiner Zeit. Die sozialen Gegensätze prallen hier deutlich aufeinander, ironisch gebrochen zum Beispiel durch die Figur des reichen jungen Gentleman Courtland VanBibber, der stets Gutes zu tun glaubt, dabei aber oft ganz unbekümmert über das Ziel hinausschießt. Kleine Ganoven wie Hefty Burke geraten zufällig in den Sog der internationalen Politik, Reisende Amerikaner erleben das Heraufziehen weltpolitischer Krisen,...

Had the Wilmot Electric Light people remained content only to make light, had they not, as a by-product, attempted to make money, they need not have left Hayti.

My Buried Treasure
ISBN: 9781517604066 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is a true story of a search for buried treasure. The only part that is not true is the name of the man with whom I searched for the treasure. Unless I keep his name out of it he will not let me write the story, and, as it was his expedition and as my share of the treasure is only what I can make by writing the story, I must write as he dictates. I think the story should be told, because our experience was unique, and might be of benefit to others. And, besides, I need the money.
