Excerpt from Random Recollections The Revolution wrought many changes in the old colonial town. The governor and his court were gone. The great square pew, decorated with the royal arms, was no longer seen in the parish church. The palace was in ruins and the seat of government had been moved to Richmond. Still, despite these and other changes, the place and people remained very much as of old. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Recollections, Personal and Literary His youth showed again how much more inborn tendency has to do with one's life than any exter nal forces, such as guardianship, means, and what we call education. The thrush takes to the bough, wheresoever hatched and fledged. Many waters cannot quench genius, neither can the floods drown it. The story of Dickens's boyhood, as told by him self, is not more pathetic, nor is its outcome more beautiful, than the story of Richard Henry Stod dard's experiences, his orphanage, his few years' meagre schooling, his work as a boy in all sorts of shifting occupations, the attempt to make a learned blacksmith of him, his final apprenticeship to iron moulding, at which he worked on the East Side from his eighteenth to his twenty-first year. As Dr. Griswold put it, he began to mould his thoughts into the symmetry of verse while he moulded the molten metal into shapes of grace. Stoddard, how ever, afterward said that a knowledge of foundries was not one of the learned doctor's strong points.

Excerpt from My Recollections Were I to live a thousand years - which is hardly likely - I should never forget that fateful day, February 24, 1848, when I was just six years old. Not so much because it coincided with the fall Of the Monarchy of July, as that it marked the first steps of my musical career - a career which, even yet, I am not sure was my real destiny, so great is my love for the exact sciences! At that time I lived with my parents in the Rue de Beaune in an apartment overlooking the great gardens. The day promised to be fine, but it was very cold.

Excerpt from Collections and Recollections But events, however striking, are only landmarks in memory. They are isolated and detached, and begin and end in themselves. The real interest of one's early life is in its Links with the Past, through the old people whom one has known. Though I place my first distinct recollection in 1856, I have memories more or less hazy of an earlier date.

Excerpt from Some Recollections I am naturally gratified to think that under my editorial control that great publishing house, which was almost a sort of national institution in those days, reached its highest point of prosperity and success. It would be impossible and useless to attempt to record chronologically all the interesting events connected with the arduous and responsible duties of my post during the many years that I held it; but I may mention a few by way of illustration.

Excerpt from Bygone Years: Recollections T has been often remarked that few men above the age of eighty retain any activity of mind. Although I have long passed that age, I do not perceive that my mind, which was never active, is less so than it was. What is gradually failing me is memory, and if I am to relate a few incidents of my life, I must do so at once. I cannot attempt to write an autobiography, but merely to jot down some recollections which may be found of interest. It is curious how uncertain memory becomes at an advanced age. Whilst I remember a number of unimportant events, I find it difficult to call to mind the broad outlines of my life. I can, therefore, only offer a disconnected account of it, for which I crave the indulgence of any one who may be inclined to glance over these pages. It may be extended to me because the whole of these recollections have been written since I attained my eighty-sixth birthday, and because I possess no notes or journals to assist me, except those from which I have taken descriptions of Spain, India and Russia, which I wrote at the request of my uncle, the Duke of Devonshire.
