"Red Rock" by Thomas Nelson Page is a Gothic romance novel. The story covers an important era of US history (1865-1877). The plot is set in the Red Rock region where the Grays and Carys lived lies too far from the centers of modern progress to be laid down on any map that will be accessible. It was a good land in those old times—a rolling country, lying at the foot of the blue mountain spurs, with forests and fields; and rich meadows filled with fat cattle.

Two Little Confederates: Large Print By Thomas Nelson Page The "Two Little Confederates" lived at Oakland. It was not a handsome place, as modern ideas go, but down in Old Virginia, where the standard was different from the later one, it passed in old times as one of the best plantations in all that region. The boys thought it the greatest place in the world, of course excepting Richmond, where they had been one year to the fair, and had seen a man pull fire out of his mouth, and do other wonderful things. It was quite secluded. It lay, it is true, right between two of the county roads, the Court-house Road being on one side, and on the other the great "Mountain Road," down which the large covered wagons with six horses and jingling bells used to go; but the lodge lay this side of the one, and "the big woods," where the boys shot squirrels, and hunted 'possums and coons, and which reached to the edge of "Holetown," stretched between the house and the other, so that the big gate-post where the semi-weekly mail was left by the mail-rider each Tuesday and Friday afternoon was a long walk, even by the near cut through the woods. The railroad was ten miles away by the road. There was a nearer way, only about half the distance, by which the negroes used to walk and which during the war, after all the horses were gone, the boys, too, learned to travel; but before that, the road by Trinity Church and Honeyman's Bridge was the only route, and the other was simply a dim bridle-path, and the "horseshoe-ford" was known to the initiated alone.

American author THOMAS NELSON PAGE (1853-1922), of the Nelson and Page "First Families" of Virginia, popularized the "plantation tradition" of Southern literature, idealizing the slavery-era South in such short story collections as In Ole Virginia (1887) and The Burial of the Guns (1894). But he also wrote nonfiction of the same tenor, such as this 1892 collection of essays, which he hoped might "serve to help awaken inquiry into the true history of the Southern people and may aid in dispelling the misapprehension under which the Old South has lain so long."This replica of that original collection offers invaluable insight into a mindset that has not fully been abandoned today, even more than a century later. Here, Nelson Page offers his proudly antebellum attitudes on: "The Old South" "Authorship in the South Before the War" "Glimpses of Life in Colonial Virginia" "Social Life in Old Virginia Before the War" "Two Old Colonial Places" "The Old Virginia Lawyer" "The Want of a History of the Southern People" "The Negro Question"

Thomas Nelson Page (1853-1922) was an American writer born in the village of Beaverdam in Hanover County, Virginia. A scion of the prominent Nelson and Page families, he attended Washington College and the University of Virginia in pursuit of a legal career and practiced as a lawyer in Richmond between 1876 and 1893. However, he kept up his writing which, when compiled and published in 1912, amounted to eighteen volumes. His works include: Marse Chan (1884), In Ole Virginia (1887), Two Little Confederates (1888), Befo' de War (1888), On Newfound River (1891), Elsket (1891), The Old South (1892), Pastime Stories (1894), The Burial of the Guns (1894), The Old Gentleman of the Black Stock (1897) and Two Prisoners (1898).

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.

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
