Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Yoke of Silence The harvest field was deserted; the slanting rays of the sun were streaming along the lines of newly-cut grain, turning the heavy heads of barley to bright gold. A group of workers had just passed out through the gate leading on to the high-road, in the wake of the jingling reaping-machine. The women walked wearily, with their sunbonnets thrown back from their brown faces; the men in straggling groups. Sir Andrew Brewster, the laird of Pittivie, leaned his arm on the top rail of the gate, and gave a kindly nod or word to each worker as they passed out. He surveyed his crops thoughtfully. Not yet the end of August, and the harvest well begun. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
