The Hills of Refuge By William N. Harben eks I fight against it. I've even prayed for release, but to no purpose. Last night I was consorting with the lowest of the low. I had the money and they had the rags, the dirt, and the thirst. A friend found me and brought me home, or God only knows where I would have been by this time. They say it is in my blood; two grandfathers fell under it--one killed himself. Yes, I've decided--at last I've decided." "Decided what, sir?" anxiously questioned Michael, as he took the empty cup and placed it on the tray. "I've decided to be man enough to leave Boston forever. I shall not inflict myself longer on William and his wife and that angel child. Listen to me, Mike. There is such a thing as a conscience, and at times it burns in a man like the fires of hell itself. Do you know--you must know it, though--I practically killed my mother? She used to spend night after night awake on my account. Worry over me actually broke her down. She was always awake when I was out like I was last night. Mike, I was d We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Seven years ago, Moriyah was taken captive in Jericho and branded with the mark of the Canaanite gods. Now the Israelites are experiencing peace in their new land, but Moriyah has yet to find her own peace. Because of the shameful mark on her face, she hides behind her veil at all times and the disdain of the townspeople keeps her from socializing. And marriage prospects were out of the question . . . until now. Her father has found someone to marry her, and she hopes to use her love of cooking to impress the man and his motherless sons. But when things go horribly wrong, Moriyah is forced to flee. Seeking safety at one of the newly-established Levitical cities of refuge, she is wildly unprepared for the dangers she will face, and the enemies--and unexpected allies--she will encounter on her way.

Excerpt from Cities of Refuge: A Novel Three soldiers were talking - between long silences behind one of the baggage wagons of an army in retreat. They were Russians. Behind them and in front were men like themselves, marching out of step, and other wagons, and guns, and ambulances, and farm carts with wounded men lying in the straw. There was the shuffle Of tired feet, a jingle of harness, a creaking of wheels, the shrill squeak of unoiled axles. In the soft air of the Crimea was the sharp sour smell of thousands of unwashed bodies and sweaty horses. It was the stench of a broken army.

Excerpt from The Cross Pull History records the fact that when the last big herd of bison moved into the north on the spring migration it never returned. The hide hunters watched in vain for the southward movement in the fall for it never came. The big gray buffalo wolves, too, had suddenly vanished from the plains. Strange rumors were heard about this mysterious evaporation of the shaggy horde rumors which gave birth to the fable of the lost herd that would some day come grazing down out of the north. Not only in legend were they lost, but lost in truth. Rather than once more run the gauntlet of the guns along the Arkansas and the Platte, the last herd departed from the customs of untold centuries and sought refuge in the hills. They chose the Land of Many Rivers in which to make their final stand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Heritage of the Hills HE road wound ever upward through I pines and spruce and several varieties of oak. Some of the latter were straight, some sprawling, all massive. N ow and then a break in the timber revealed wooded hills beyond green pasture lands, and other hills covered with dense growths of buckhorn and manzanita. Poison oak grew everywhere, and, at this time of year - early spring - was most prolific, most beautiful in its dark rich green, most poisonous. Occasionally the lone horseman crossed a riot ous stream, plunging down from the snow topped Sierras in the far distance. Rail fences, for the most part in a tumbledown condition, paralleled the dirt road here and there. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Son of the Hills There are a few wretched cabins in Lost Hollow, detached and dreary; between The Hollow and The Forge are some farms showing more or less cultiva tion, and there is the Walden Place, known before the war - they still speak of that event among the southern hills as if Sheridan had ridden through in the morning and might be expected back at night as the Great House.
