eBook Title: The Man that Corrupted Hadleyburg
Author: Mark Twain
eBook Description:
It was many years ago. Hadleyburg was the most honest and upright
town in all the region round about. It had kept that reputation
unsmirched during three generations, and was prouder of it than of
any other of its possessions. It was so proud of it, and so anxious
to insure its perpetuation, that it began to teach the principles of
honest dealing to its babies in the cradle, and made the like
teachings the staple of their culture thenceforward through all the
years devoted to their education. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00

Chapter 1 When Wolves Ran Free in Paris I, THE SIEUR LOUIS DE CONTE, was born in Neufchateau, on

Joan of Arc was born in Domremy. My family had fled to those
distant regions from the neighborhood of Paris in the first years of
the century. In politics they were Armagnacs--patriots; they were
for our own French King, crazy and impotent as he was. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00

eBook Title: LIFE ON THE MISSISSIPPI
Author: Mark Twain
eBook Description:
THE 'BODY OF THE NATION' BUT the basin of the Mississippi is the BODY OF THE NATION.
All the other parts are but members, important in themselves,
yet more important in their relations to this. Exclusive of
the Lake basin and of 300,000 square miles in Texas and New Mexico,
which in many aspects form a part of it, this basin contains
about 1,250,000 square miles. In extent it is the second great
valley of the world, being exceeded only by that of the Amazon.

eBook Title: Rambling Idle Excursion
Author: Mark Twain

All the journeyings I had ever done had been purely in the way of
business. The pleasant May weather suggested a novelty namely, a trip
for pure recreation, the bread-and-butter element left out. The Reverend
said he would go, too; a good man, one of the best of men, although a
clergyman. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 3.00

Actus Primus. Scoena Prima. Enter Demetrius and Philo. Philo. Nay, but this dotage of our Generals
Ore-flowes the measure: those his goodly eyes

The Office and Deuotion of their view
Vpon a Tawny Front. His Captaines heart,
Which in the scuffles of great Fights hath burst
The Buckles on his brest, reneages all temper,
And is become the Bellowes and the Fan
To coole a Gypsies Lust.
