Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The House on the Mall The young man with the exceeding solemn face who stood on the steps of the house on the Mall was Francis Hugh Wentworth Penderel, Seventh Marquess of Drysdale. He paused to gaze up and down the river, beautiful and inviting in the sunlight, and congratulated himself on his foresight in having come out without an overcoat on the twentieth of April. Indeed after six hours bright sunshine the spring afternoon was almost hot. He stood for perhaps two minutes admiring the sun on the river and the faint shade of the green of spring on the meadows on the further bank, with a softness and wistfulness in his fine brown eyes, somewhat out of keeping with his exceeding solemn face. Then he pressed the bell and knocked. The door was opened by a pretty parlor-maid. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
