The morning air is getting "crisp," but there's still time for some good summer reading. These last three months we've recommended to you books on Revolutionary and Civil War history. We think it's time for a change, so--are you ready for this?--how about reading a romance?
The display case outside the Bullis Room is full of romance books from the collection. We're going to list a few of them here, but we hope you can stop by in the next few weeks and look over the whole group. In the interim, we suggest you consider reading one of the following:
When Knighthood Was In Flower..., by Edwin Caskoden (Charles Major), published in 1898.
The Trail of the Lonesome Pine, by John Fox, Jr., published in 1908.
Lalla Rookh, An Oriental Romance, by Thomas Moore, published in 1856.
Rose Mather, by Mary J. Holmes (who lived 40 miles west of Macedon, from 1852 until her death in 1907).
The Mine With the Iron Door, by Harold Bell Wright, published 1923.
The Iron Trail: An Alaskan Romance, by Rex Beach, published in 1913.
Enjoy!
