eBook Title: A Dog's Tale
Author: Mark Twain
eBook Description:
CHAPTER I My father was a St. Bernard, my mother was a collie, but I am a
Presbyterian. This is what my mother told me, I do not know these nice
distinctions myself. To me they are only fine large words meaning
nothing. My mother had a fondness for such; she liked to say them, and
see other dogs look surprised and envious, as wondering how she got so
much education. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00

eBook Title: King Lear
Author: William Shakespeare
eBook Description:
Act 1 "scene" 1 Scene 1 [King Lear's palace.] [Enter KENT, GLOUCESTER, and EDMUND] KENT I thought the king had more affected the Duke of
Albany than Cornwall. GLOUCESTER It did always seem so to us: but now, in the
division of the kingdom, it appears not which of
the dukes he values most; for equalities are so
weighed, that curiosity in neither can make choice
of either's moiety. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00

eBook Title: TOM SAWYER, DETECTIVE
Author: Mark Twain
eBook Description:
CHAPTER I. AN INVITATION FOR TOM AND HUCK [Footnote: Strange as the incidents of this story are,
they are not inventions, but facts -- even to the
public confession of the accused. I take them from an
old-time Swedish criminal trial, change the actors,
and transfer the scenes to America. I have added some
details, but only a couple of them are important
ones. -- M. T.] Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00

eBook Title: The Battle of Life
Author: Charles Dickens
eBook Description:
CHAPTER I - Part The First Once upon a time, it matters little when, and in stalwart England, it matters little where, a fierce battle was fought. It was fought upon a long summer day when the waving grass was green. Many a wild flower formed by the Almighty Hand to be a perfumed goblet for the dew, felt its enamelled cup filled high with blood that day, and shrinking dropped. Many an insect deriving its delicate colour from harmless leaves and herbs, was stained anew that day by dying men, and marked its frightened way with an unnatural track.

eBook Title: Roughing It
Author: Mark Twain
eBook Description:
PREFATORY. This ebook is merely a personal narrative, and not a pretentious history
or a philosophical dissertation. It is a record of several years of
variegated vagabondizing, and its object is rather to help the resting
reader while away an idle hour than afflict him with metaphysics, or goad
him with science. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00

eBook Title: TOM SAWYER ABROAD
Author: Mark Twain
eBook Description:
CHAPTER I. TOM SEEKS NEW ADVENTURES DO you reckon Tom Sawyer was satisfied after all
them adventures? I mean the adventures we had
down the river, and the time we set the darky Jim free
and Tom got shot in the leg. No, he wasn't. It only
just p'isoned him for more. That was all the effect it
had. You see, when we three came back up the river
in glory, as you may say, from that long travel, and
the village received us with a torchlight procession and
speeches, and everybody hurrah'd and shouted, it
made us heroes, and that was what Tom Sawyer had
always been hankering to be. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00

eBook Title: Extracts From Adam's Diary
Author: Mark Twain
eBook Description:
Monday This new creature with the long hair is a good deal in the way.
It is always hanging around and following me about. I don't like
this; I am not used to company. I wish it would stay with the
other animals. Cloudy to-day, wind in the east; think we shall
have rain. ... Where did I get that word? ... I remember now--
the new creature uses it. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00
