The Boy Scout
ISBN: 9781517211974 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 40 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.

The Consul
ISBN: 9781517620196 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For over forty years, in one part of the world or another, old man Marshall had, served his country as a United States consul. He had been appointed by Lincoln. For a quarter of a century that fact was his distinction. It was now his epitaph. But in former years, as each new administration succeeded the old, it had again and again saved his official head.

Cinderella: and Other Stories
ISBN: 9781517211158 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 98 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Excerpt from Cinderella: And Other Stories
The servants of the Hotel Salisbury, which is so called because it is situated on Broad way and conducted on the American plan by a man named Riggs, had agreed upon a date for their annual ball and volunteer concert, and had announced that it would eclipse every other annual ball in the history of the hotel. As the Hotel Salisbury had been only two years in existence, this was not an idle boast, and it had the effect of inducing many people to buy the tickets, which sold at a dollar apiece, and were good for "one gent and a lady," and entitled...

Gallegher and Other Stories
ISBN: 9781421821627 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. We had had so many office-boys before Gallegher came among us that they had begun to lose the characteristics of individuals, and became merged in a composite photograph of small boys, to whom we applied the generic title of "Here, you"; or "You, boy." We had had sleepy boys, and lazy boys, and bright, "smart" boys, who became so familiar on so short an acquaintance that we were forced to part with them to save our own self-respect. They generally graduated into district-messenger boys, and occasionally returned to us in blue coats with nickel-plated buttons, and patronized us.

Ranson's Folly
ISBN: 9781517605490 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The junior officers of Fort Crockett had organized a mess at the post-trader's. "And a mess it certainly is," said Lieutenant Ranson. The dining-table stood between hogsheads of molasses and a blazing log-fire, the counter of the store was their buffet, a pool-table with a cloth, blotted like a map of the Great Lakes, their sideboard, and Indian Pete acted as butler. But none of these things counted against the great fact that each evening Mary Cahill, the daughter of the post-trader, presided over the evening meal, and turned it into a banquet. From her high chair behind the counter, with...

The Amateur
ISBN: 9781517604059 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 30 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It was February off the Banks, and so thick was the weather that, on the upper decks, one could have driven a sleigh. Inside the smoking-room Austin Ford, as securely sheltered from the blizzard as though he had been sitting in front of a wood fire at his club, ordered hot gin for himself and the ship's doctor. The ship's doctor had gone below on another "hurry call" from the widow. At the first luncheon on board the widow had sat on the right of Doctor Sparrow, with Austin Ford facing her.

The Rulers of the Mediterranean
ISBN: 9781517604134 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. If you have always crossed the Atlantic in the spring-time or in the summer months, as do most tourists, you will find that leaving New York in the winter is more like a relief expedition to the north pole than the setting forth on a pleasure tour to the summer shores of the Mediterranean. There is no green grass on the hills of Staten Island, but there is, instead, a long field of ice stretching far up the Hudson River, and a wind that cuts into the face, and dashes the spray up over the tugboats in frozen layers, leaving it there like the icing on a cake. The Atlantic Highlands are black...

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...

Peace Manoueuvres

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. They were to report that on the right flank, so far, at least, as Middleboro, there was no sign of the...
