Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A West Point Wooing: And Other Stories Near a window in the library at West Point a young woman was sitting. She held in her hands a book, but her eyes often wandered from the page to the smooth green lawn without, or absently sought the faces in the large paintings which line the dignified room. In truth the life of a girl at West Point is so far more interesting to her than any effort of the fictionist, little wonder that the spell of the latter is feeble to hold her. She cannot spare time from the engrossing heroes and heroines in her actual surroundings to those who have not the pleasure of her acquaintance. Of course there are stars of varying magnitude in the picturesque orbit of the post, and this brown-haired young woman in the library was a bright particular star of the present summer. Even many of the plebes - those downtrodden, wing-clipped butts of every upper classman´s ugly or merry humors - knew her face and name. Two of them were in the library now, a forlorn Damon and Pythias, companions whose friendly bond was born of their common misery.
