Przygodowa
Jack London
This is an honest story that the Game, whether its sport or life in general, is unpredictable and completely indifferent to the circumstances in which the person is. Great hopes are broken about reality, and this is the whole of London, which cuts off the shoulder when it wants to say something to its reader. The picture from life is shown succinctly and expertly, and therefore it is worth saying thanks to our friend Jack for the next small literary gift.
Max Brand
Rascal, rogue, and gambler, Ben Connor was about to meet his match... Ben Connor liked fine clothes, lovely ladies and smooth-drinking liquor. But what he liked most was a horse that won races. The moment he saw an Eden Gray run, he knew he had laid eyes on the finest piece of horseflesh ever to win a race... or make a gamblers dream come true. So why not find the reclusive deaf mute who owns the Eden Gray, buy one, enter it in races and watch his fortune grow? The plans seem solid, but theyre stymied when the owner refuses to sell. A great horse story coupled with the typical excitement one expects from Max Brand makes this a great book.
Robert W. Chambers
This book is not a flowing novel, but rather a collection of experiences. Young men with good looks and health are kidnapped and married to young women from the eugenics suffragette movement to breed a perfect race of beautiful and intelligent people.
H. Rider Haggard
Haggard was a great popularizer of the story about the lost world, and his The Ghost Kings are an interesting addition to dozens of others in the authors pantheon. We meet Rachel Dove, the daughter of a British missionary who has traveled through the wilds of Africa for most of her young life. Her life turned upside down when another teenager Richard Darrien saved her from sudden flooding. These two are another pair of Haggards predestined lovers.
H.A. Cody
For the main character, his daily work became a real torment. That he told his doctor. He had to drag himself to the office every morning, and always left him tired at the end of the day. He had never experienced anything like it before. His old friend Dr. Bradbury, in whom he was sure, would give him something to build him, and in a short time he would be as good as ever. But this order to leave the forest was something that he did not expect.....
The God of His Fathers and Other Stories
Jack London
A white man bought an Indian woman as a wife. Bought without any romantic feelings, bought for help. The girl did her job: cooked, fed dogs, paved the way for teams. And the point is not in servile worship of the master, but in the fact that she saw in her husband an honest and courageous man trying to save other people from hunger and cold. They hoped for him, and she, at the cost of her life, helped her husband keep her word.
Fenton Ash
Welcome to the The Gold Idol book, were we present to you one of the best work of remarkable author of pulp fiction Francis Henry Frank Atkins (1847-1927), who contributed widely to the pre-sf Pulp magazines, writing at least three Lost-World novels along with much else. Despite his commercial success at the time, little is known about Atkins personal life. His son was writer Frank Howard Atkins too.
Max Brand
No writer captured the excitement, humanity, or adventure of the American West better than Max Brand. And nowhere was Brands talent more evident than in this classic short novel. In The Gold King turns his back, young Miriam Standard returns to her fathers ranch determined to learn the business, but she discovers she has a lot to learn when she makes the statement that she will marry any man who can bring in Gold King, the wild mustang. The Gold King Turns His Back presents a ripsnorter of a father-daughter feud that concludes with a proper twist. Experience the West as only Max Brand could write it!
