Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ann and Her Mother Mrs. Douglas and her daughter Ann sat together in their living-room one November night. It was a wonderfully comfortable room, brightly yet softly lit, and warmed by a noble fire. There was a pleasant space and emptiness about it, an absence of ornaments and irrelevant photographs; each piece of furniture, each of the few pictures, was of value. Mrs. Douglas had a book in her lap and in her hand a half-finished stocking, for she considered that she was wasting time if she did not knit while reading. Ann sat on a stool by the fire, poring over a seedsman's catalogue, a puzzled frown on her brow. "I wish," she said, without looking up, "I do wish I knew more about gardening. I can't make out from this what will grow best with us. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
