Dawn Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from A City of the Dawn IT is something more than a pleasure to me to be asked to say a few words of introduction to this brilliant little book, the work of a friend and former pupil. Brilliant is the Word that keeps recurring to me, because the author appears to me to have actually seen things wonderful and strange, to have caught and retained, out of a thousand rich impres sions, whatever it is which constitutes their interest and charm, their strangeness and grotesqueness, their appeal and pathos, their strength and fineness; and all this, it seems to me, ripples into words both apt and beau tiful, till I too see and feel it, swiftly and distinctly - the heat, the colour, the scent, the atmosphere of it all. The book is Vivid, picturesque, impressive from end to end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
