Mark Twain once famously said "there was but one solitary thing about the past worth remembering, and that was the fact that it is past and can't be restored." Well, over recent years, The British Library, working with Microsoft has embarked on an ambitious programme to digitise its collection of 19th century books. There are now 65,000 titles available (that's an incredible 25 million pages) of material ranging from works by famous names such as Dickens, Trollope and Hardy as well as many forgotten literary gems , all of which can now be printed on demand and purchased right here on Amazon. Further information on The British Library and its digitisation programme can be found on The British Library website.

(These men once lived and had strenuoL: ,lives. The blood ...)
These men once lived and had strenuoL: ,lives. The blood that was in them was generouji as the wine that enriched it. They feared neither the buttered claret at night, nor the blaze of a pistol in the morning, and their honour was as untarnished as the bright steel of their sword blades. Horses and dogs were their friends, and the air of the hills made their hearts glad. The saddle was their cradle, point-blankers were their playthings. Some of them loved women; near all of them would have fought for a woman, with or without cause. Now they are dead and the race is no more. Their fame is but a memory, and of the deeds which they did only the winds speak, as they moan in the Valley of the Pines or sweep over the Shepherd s Crossing and through the Hunter s Gap to where the Well of the Three Sisters lies deep in the shadow of the mountain.
