A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Columbine Time JUNE as it grew late and lush brought the great virginal white columbines, as A ugust, wanton of the decadent year, was to bring their flaunting sisters in red and yellow. The transformations of those valleys among the peaks are violent and sudden; as violent as the lives they cradle, as sudden as mountain passions. One June evening the hillsides lay in a pattern of brown and fresh springlike green, but no white; that was all above, where the perpetual snows of the peaks sent down on each fresh breeze little flurries of winter. Through that pattern the columbine bushes lay in domes of dark green still unillumined, as being creatures waiting for a soul. Then one night, at about that period when the sun stands on the northern border of his realm, the first novice among the virgin sisterhood would put on her veil and turn her snowy bosom to the summer moon.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
