The Art and Practice of Hawking

Category: Author:novel 

IT would be easy to fill a large volume with dissertations on the antiquity of the art which is now called Falconry, and with records of its history in different countries during the many centuries that have elapsed since it was first practised. In a treatise on practical hawking, such as the present, there is no room for such matter; ...

The Child in Human Progress

Category: Author:novel 

 THIS is a new sort of book, and unique. That is why I look upon the permission to write a brief preface for it as a rare privilege. Writings on children are frequent.

"Knock, Knock, Knock and Other Stories" with its themes of the supernatural was, therefore, something of a departure for a writer who was well known for his more humanitarian and liberal views. However, Turgenev uses...
