As an eyewitness recountal of the extraordinary ...

Biographies of Working Men

Category: Author:novel 

High up among the heather-clad hills which form the broad dividing barrier between England and Scotland, the little river Esk brawls and bickers over its stony bed through a wild land of barren braesides and brown peat mosses, forming altogether some of the gloomiest and most forbidding scenery in the whole expanse of northern Britain.

Fragments of an Autobiography

Category: Author:novel 

I well remember the terrors of a certain night when the wind was howling and the rain was beating down in torrents over the arid plains of the Lüneburger Haide; between them they had blown or blotted out the flickering lights of a heavy, lumbering travelling carriage such as one used to hire in the so-called good old times.

He did not speak about it at length, but said that he had written me a letter, not to be opened until after his death, containing instructions for publication.
