Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

_______________________________________ A sweeping love story told through letters, spanning two continents and two world wars. For fans of My Dear, I Wanted to Tell You, The Postmistress and The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. UNITED BY LETTERS. SEPARATED BY AN OCEAN. DEVASTATED BY WAR. A letter isn't always just a letter. Words on the page can drench the soul. Elspeth Dunn, a published poet living on the Isle of Skye, answers her first fan letter from Davey Graham, an impetuous young man in Illinois. Without having to worry about appearances or expectations, Elspeth and Davey confess their hopes, dreams and fears, things they've never told another soul. Even without meeting, they know one another. But as World War I engulfs Europe and Davey volunteers as an ambulance driver on the Western front, Elspeth can only wait on Skye, anxious for his return; wondering if they'll ever get a chance to meet.

Excerpt from A Summer in Skye, Vol. 1 of 2 Mr De Quincey maintains, in one of his essays, that dinner - dinner about seven in the evening, for which one dresses, which creeps on with multitudinous courses and efzz'rées, which, so far from being a gross satisfaction of appetite, is a feast noble, graceful, adorned with the pre sence and smile of beauty, and which, from the very stateliness of its progress, gives op portunities for conversation and the encounter of polished minds - saves over-wrought London from insanity. This is no mere humorous exag geration, but a very truth; and what dinner is to the day the Highlands are to the year. Away in the north, amid its green or stony silences, jaded hand and brain find repose - repose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
