Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Familiar Hale, an Attempt to Show by What Standards, of Age, Appearance and Character the Proposed Statue to Nathan Hale for the Campus of Yale College Should Be Judged
Keep still said the thrush as She nestled her young, In a nest by the road in a nest by the road For the tyrants are near, and with them appear, What bodes us no good what bodes us no good. The brave captain heard it, and thought of his home, In a cot by the brook in a cot by the brook. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
