Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dr. Thorne´s Idea: Originally Published as "Gloria Victis" On Staten Island, in the garden before a modest cottage, a plump, sunburnt little girl was sitting among the flowers. Her companion, a doll of uncertain character, whose champagne tresses and gaudy attire betokened a career of Gallic levity, or, at the very best, a purely fashionable existence, appeared strikingly out of harmony with her humble surroundings. This pretentious effigy, face down across her guardian´s lap, was about to receive the punishment we associate with that attitude, when a voice from the road caused the uplifted hand to pause in its descent. A horse and buggy had stopped before the gate, and the driver repeated his question. "Does Mrs. Zabarelli live here?" "Yes, sir, but she´s not at home." "You expect her soon, don´t you?" "Yes, sir, I guess so. At one o´clock." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
