Eyes too reverently fixed, and for too long a period, upon the glories of the treasure house discern but vaguely the hungry toilers among the shadows in the malodorous places. Occasional mutterings from the owners of empty stomachs, from the fathers of fading children, from the overworked and the unemployed, make discordant and unwelcome music for cultivated ears. Sounds of this kind, as is natural, annoy the more comfortable people, who continue to expound the law of the Survival of the Fittest. To these happy philosophers this brief tale is dedicated.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a historical fiction, follows the story of John Ames Mitchell, an ex-convict who is pardoned after serving three years of a ten-year sentence. He is released into a society that is hostile to former prisoners, and he struggles to find work and rebuild his life. Throughout his journey, he grapples with the themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the challenges faced by those who have been marginalized by society. The book is set in the late 19th century, during a time of great social and economic change, and it provides a glimpse into the lives of those who were struggling to survive on the fringes of society.
