Sinossi

In 'Lefty o' the Bush,' Burt L. Standish weaves a captivating tale set against the rugged backdrop of the American wilderness, where themes of camaraderie, resilience, and the struggle against nature emerge. This novel, marked by its vivid descriptive language and dynamic characterizations, transports readers into the heart of the wilderness. Standish employs a rich, colloquial style that reflects the vernacular of his characters, illustrating their connections to the land and each other. As a work of early 20th-century American literature, it captures an era steeped in adventure and individualism, resonating with the tradition of pulp fiction that characterized much of Standish's oeuvre. Burt L. Standish, a pseudonym for the prolific author William Wallace Cook, was known for his penchant for adventure stories that appealed to the youth of his time. His experience as a journalist and his fascination with the outdoor life deeply influenced his writing; 'Lefty o' the Bush' reflects his understanding of the American spirit and the wilderness as both a backdrop and a character in its own right. Standish's works frequently explore themes of heroism, mentorship, and the importance of nature, positioning him as a voice of adventure literature in his time. Readers are encouraged to delve into 'Lefty o' the Bush' for its thrilling narrative and rich characterization, which provide an immersive experience that speaks to both adventure seekers and literary enthusiasts alike. The book will not only entertain but also provoke thought about humanity's relationship with the natural world. It is a quintessential read for anyone interested in the fusion of adventure, camaraderie, and the untamed landscape that defines the American experience.

    The page-turning Regency romance from the author of Kingscastle
    
    First published as Bless Thine Inheritance by Sophia Holloway.
    Celia Mardham's first London Season should have been a great success, but a near fatal riding accident has left her with a pronounced limp which means she cannot even curtsy, let alone dance.
    Condemned it seems to spinsterhood, her mother Lady Mardham makes one last effort. She draws up a list of guests for a country house party, picking only young ladies who will not be rivals, as well as some potential suitors.
    Among the gentlemen is Lord Levedale and when he meets Celia he sees her, not the limp. However, a number of accidents, misunderstandings and spiteful interventions litter the path ahead, and may succeed in driving them apart for good.
