Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Tale of the Crow´s Nest Pass "Dear old ´Varsity," said her sister in a voice quiet, but thrilling with intense feeling. "There is nothing so lovely in all this city of Toronto." "Toronto!" exclaimed the young man at her side. "Well, I should say! Don´t you know that a distinguished American art critic declares this building the most symmetrical, the most harmonious, the most perfectly proportioned bit of architecture on the American continent. And that is something, from a citizen of the ´biggest nation on dry land."´ They walked slowly and silently along the border of the matchless velvety lawn, noting the many features of beauty in the old grey face of the University building - the harmonious variety of lines and curves in curious gargoyles, dragons, and gryphons that adorned the cornices and the lintels, pausing long to admire the wonderful carved entrance with its massive tower above. "Great, isn´t it?" said Lloyd. "The whole thing, I mean - park, lawn, and the dear old, grey stones." At this moment some men in football garb came running out of the pillared portico. "Oh, here´s the team!" cried Betty, the younger sister, ecstatically. "Are they going to play?" "No, I think not," said Lloyd. "Campbell would not risk any scrimmaging or tackling this evening, with McGill men even now in town thirsting for their blood. He´s got them out for a run to limber up their wind and things for to-morrow." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
