Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Family Fortunes: A Domestic Story It was the sunset hour of a wild, windy autumn day. The city smoke rose up glorified by the golden light in the west behind it, which slept along the green hills by the river-side, and faded into a soft grayness upon the eastern sea, only here and there still lingering with a touch of brightness on tall foundry chimney or flag-decked mast. When one looked down from the glow of the sky, the quaint old streets seemed bathed in cool violet shadows, which brought out strongly whatever was picturesque and suggestive in gable and tower, and such were not wanting in any of the older parts of that city by the sea, whether in the tall dark byways that clustered together behind the harbor, or in the long highway that skirted the wild beach and had an historic and scholastic reputation of its own.
