Excerpt from That Treasure, or Adventures of Frontier LifeSharply outlined against the blue southern hori zon rise the summits of two mighty volcano peaks. On every side stand mountain ranges, which the keen, clear air seems to bring close to the broad streets of the city, a city stately with domes, tow ers, and steeples, a city of ancient power and grandeur, a city famed in history, in poetry, and in romance, the old capital of the Aztec Emperors, the City of Mexico.In one of its streets was a low stone building, with ¿at roof and balconied upper windows. In the doorway there stood a handsome, athletic young fellow in his seventeenth year, as straight as an Apache arrow, with crisp dark hair, and keen black eyes, American by birth, cosmopolitan from force of circumstances.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
