Excerpt from Black Ice Percival Reynolds, Civil and Mining Engineer, somewhat past forty, fairly well known as an expert in my profession and not altogether unknown in certain scientific lines outside of it, Hester, my wife, a comely matron some years younger, though the struggles that have brought me somewhat of success have given her gray hairs, and Bertha, our daughter, aged thirteen, - these constitute our household. Man-like, I have named myself first - perhaps because social convention has imposed my name as a sort of proprietary stamp on the other members of this agnatic group. Named in the order of their rank the category would be reversed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
