The Morgesons: A Novel. E-book. Formato PDF ebook di Elizabeth Stoddard

When my aunt said this I was climbing a chest of drawers, by its knobs, in order to reach the book shelves above it, where my favorite work, The Northern Regions, was kept, together with Baxter's Saints' Rest, and other volumes of that sort, which belonged to my mother; and those which my father bought for his own reading, which I liked the best, though I only caught a glimpse of their meaning by strenuous study. To this day Sheridan's Comedies, Sterne's Sentimental Journey, and Captain Cook's Voyages are so mixed up in my remembrance, that I am still uncertain whether it was Sterne who ate baked dog with Maria, or Sheridan who wept over a dead ass in the Sandwich Islands.
