Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Loyal Little Maid Betsey jumped ashore at the Philipse landing and moored her canoe to the stump of the old sycamore. Familiar as the scene was to her, she paused for a moment to drink in its beauty. Opposite, the Palisades arose above the bright waters of the Hudson, their precipitous sides, clad with autumnal foliage, presenting an unbroken wall of splendid color, of manifold gradations, in the haze of Indian summer. On this side of the river, nature gave place to painstaking cultivation. A strip of shingly beach, bordered by stately yew-trees, merged into a wide expanse of velvet lawn, dotted with rare shrubbery. On the summit of its gentle slopes stood Manor Hall, the residence of the Philipse family. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
