Sinopsis

While their parents are away in India, Caroline, Charlotte and Charles are left with their great uncle Charles. Looking for entertainment, they come across an old book entitled “The Language of Flowers”, which seems to contain a variety of magical spells. The trio waste no time in trying to perform these invocations, which may or may not have been the cause of the decidedly queer things that happen next. Edith Nesbit's 1911 “The Wonderful Garden” is a fantastic example of children's literature that would make for perfect bedtime reading and is not to be missed by fans and collectors of her seminal literature. Contents include: “The Beginning”, “The Manor House”, “The Wonderful Garden”, “In Thessalonians”, “The Midnight Adventure”, “Hunted”, “Being Detectives”, “The Heroine”, “The Morning After”, “Brewing the Spell”, “The Rosicrucians”, “The Other Books”, “The Rosy Cure”, “The Mineral Woman”, “Justice”, “The Appeal to Caesar”, “The Le-O-Pard”, “The Leopard's-Bane”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and  expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

    This beautifully illustrated children’s book explores how Walt Whitman was affected by the Civil War and inspired by President Lincoln. 
     
    O Captain, My Captain tells the story of one of America’s greatest poets and how he was inspired by one of America’s greatest presidents. Whitman and Lincoln shared the national stage in Washington, DC, during the Civil War. Though the two men never met, Whitman would often see Lincoln’s carriage on the road. The president was never far from the poet’s mind, and Lincoln’s “grace under pressure” was something Whitman returned to again and again in his poetry.  
     
    Whitman witnessed Lincoln’s second inauguration and mourned along with America as Lincoln’s funeral train wound its way across the landscape to his final resting place. The book includes the poem “O Captain! My Captain!” and an excerpt from “When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom’d,” as well as brief bios of Lincoln and Whitman, a timeline of Civil War events, endnotes, and a bibliography.

    “Her child characters are remarkable because they are so entirely human. They are intelligent, vain, aggressive, humorous, witty, cruel, compassionate... in fact, they are like adults” - Gore Vidal 
    The Railway Children, a much-loved children's classic, was first published in 1906 and has never been out of print. It is a classic tale of humanity, eternal love, and kindness. The lives of Roberta, Peter and Phyllis are shattered when their father is falsely accused of spying, forcing them to move away from their London home to a cottage in rural Yorkshire. They soon become enchanted with a railway that runs nearby. There follows a series of many adventures, including saving a train from disaster and befriending an old Gentleman (a daily commuter), who helps them in their struggle to prove their father's innocence. 
    One of the most famous stories of all time, enjoyed by millions of children and adults across the world.
