Excerpt from Flesh and BloodIN the Province of Champagne, mid-way, or there abouts, between Fumay and Mezieres, the sinuous course of the river Meuse described a wider and more pronounced curve. On the right bank it was bounded by silvery osiers, rich meadows and corn land on the left towered a rocky height, which, after frowning for a brief distance, melted into a well-wooded hill. In the space which separated the grim rock and the leafy recesses of the wooded hill from the bold encroach ments of the river, nestled a village a few red roofs, a thin and quaintly-shaped church-spire, a grey-walled chateau, starting up from amidst smiling gardens and blossoming orchards. Conceive that, and you have the French village of La Jonquieres before you.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
