"You will find here nine stories. Three of them have been printed separately. But I wished to bring them into one book because they seemed to me like parts of the same story, -- the long story which will not be perfectly told till men learn a new language, -- the story of the search for happiness, which is life.

"Only one of the stories, -- that which has to do with Winfried and the Oak of Geismar, -- has any foundation in fact, or even in legend. Yet I think they are all true. And so, will you take the little book, and see if it belongs to you? Once it was not mine, and then it was mine, and now it is no longer mine alone." -- Henry Van Dyke

10 full page color illustrations from the original book.
Archaic and foreign words and phrases are translated as interactive endnotes.
Original print edition: Published in 1902, 300 pages.

Ephalant Press -- the way ebooks SHOULD be.

Ephalant Press Revived Editions is dedicated to bringing great books from bygone eras back to life as digital editions. We believe in quality, not quantity, and go beyond just scanning a print book -- we carefully edit, correct, and format the text to ensure that it is accurate and faithful to the original.

We love the charm and history of old books, and replicate the original book as closely as possible, so you can have the experience of reading the book as it was written and printed. We use the original cover and all the original illustrations -- even fixing blemishes. You will see the difference, in books that you and your children will love to read.

If you see another Kindle edition of this book, take a look at the sample -- most have a "Look Inside" feature, allowing you to click on the cover image and see a few pages. Compare these versions to ours and see which one you prefer!
