Sweetser, K: Great American Girls (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Great American GirlsThere was a time when men were timid and girls were bold, - oh long, long ago - when apples grew on cherry trees and grapes on rose bushes. At that time the Sky was green and the grass was blue and men and women were rich and happy and told only untrue stories because they were so true.That was a Day of Dreams in a Dream-world, and one of the loveliest ladies in it cannot be called by name because she had no name, but was only a Story Teller.She knew much about many gallant girls in many countries and in all ages, some Of whose hands she had only clasped in dreams, but of whose lives she could speak, and others of whom She could tell the truly untrue tales which She felt to be true.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
