Synopsis "Strange Stories from History for Young People (in English)"
This delightful non-fiction Victorian Era book by George Cary Eggleston will make a wonderful edition to any library. From the author: "In calling the tales in this volume 'Strange Stories' I have sought simply to indicate that, in the main, they are unfamiliar to youthful readers, and that most of them relate deeds and occurrences some what out of the common. In choosing the themes I have tried to avoid the tales that have been often used, and to tell only those of which young readers generally have not before heard." Stories included are: THE STORY OF THE NEGRO FORT A WAR FOR AN ARCHBISHOP THE BOY COMMANDER OF THE CAMISARDS THE CANOE FIGHT THE BATTLE OF LAKE BORGNE THE BATTLE IN THE DARK THE TROUBLESOME BURGHERS THE DEFENCE OF ROCHELLE THE SAD STORY OF A BOY KING TWO OBSCURE HEROES THE CHARGE OF THE HOUNDS THE STORY OF A WINTER CAMPAIGN YOUNG WASHINGTON IN THE WOODS THE STORY OF CATHERINE THE VIRGINIA WIFE-MARKET THE BOYHOOD OF DANIEL WEBSTER THE SCULLION WHO BECAME A SCULPTOR THE BOYHOOD OF WILLIAM CHAMBERS HOW A BOY WAS HIRED OUT, AND WHAT CAME OF IT THE WICKEDEST MAN IN THE WORLD A PRINCE WHO WOULD NOT STAY DEAD Originally published in 1885, it is now being offered again 127 years later. Black and white pictures and large print makes it a pleasure for the young and old alike. If you enjoy classic books, this reproduction is a must have.
