Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Giant of the Blue Ridge The Giant of the Blue Ridge Ike Huck was in his blacksmith shop (Perched on the snow-bound mountain top) - A sooty den it was, like lair Of beast within a coal mine bare. From the rude forge a lurid light Reveals his presence to the sight. Great is his height; his eyes that dream Seem downward to the fire to stream; Like knotted rope the muscles stand Upon his folded arm and hand. Here on the mountain he had grown To greater strength than man had known, Yet dense his ignorance - the bear As much of letters knew. Yet there Were moments when with flood of pain Great knowledge came to knock in vain; Then sonant beatings of his heart, Like hammer on the iron dart, Seemed urging him to some wild deed, Suggesting some Icarian creed. And pæan in his brain would ring Of thought beyond his uttering. A knock resounded on the door, He stepped across the grimy floor. A stranger entered; it was cold; His coat was thick, his bearing bold. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
