Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Aldeane: A Novel
Though the Wind Without blew its shrillest blast and the snow came ceaselessly, while the bitter cold pointed each ?ake with ice as it fell, the inmates of the moun tain farm-house heeded it but little, SO deeply were they engrossed in their own thoughts and pursuits. It was a wildly-stormy night, but not more fierce were the winds that ruled it than the thoughts of some who gathered in the comfortable Sitting-room around the blazing fire on the hearth-stone.
