Escape, and other essays Arthur Christopher Benson · 1915 · ★ 5.0 · 302p · ≈ 10h · Challenging This book is romantic story, I walked to-day down by the river side. The Cam is a stream much slighted by the lover of wild and romantic scenery; and its chief merit, in the eyes of our boys, is that it approaches more nearly to a canal in its straightness and the deliberation of its slow lapse than many more famous floods--and is therefore more adapted for the maneuvres of eight-oared boats!

The thread of gold Arthur Christopher Benson · 1905 · 271p · ≈ 9h · Challenging This is biographical book. I have for a great part of my life desired, perhaps more than I have desired anything else, to make a beautiful book; and I have tried, perhaps too hard and too often, to do this, without ever quite succeeding; by that I mean that my little books, when finished, were not worthy to be compared with the hope that I had had of them. I think now that I tried to do too many… Shares: Essays

Letters and social aims Ralph Waldo Emerson · 1876 · 323p · ≈ 10h · Challenging In this luminous meditation on mind, nature, and art, Emerson argues that common sense is necessary, but never final: beneath the practical laws of material life lies a world of deeper correspondences, moral purpose, and continual transformation. Science, from chemistry and geology to botany and anatomy, becomes evidence that the universe is symbolic, woven together by hidden unity that the… Shares: Essays, Poetry
