Beskrivelse af My Cousin The Colonel
My Cousin The Colonel is a novel by American author Thomas Bailey Aldrich. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the life of a young man named Jack Appleton, who is the cousin of a wealthy and influential colonel. Jack is a struggling writer who is looking for inspiration and guidance in his life, and he turns to his cousin for help. The colonel takes Jack under his wing and introduces him to a world of luxury and privilege that he has never experienced before. However, as Jack becomes more involved in the colonel's life, he begins to see the darker side of his cousin's personality and the corrupt nature of the society he inhabits. The novel explores themes of wealth, power, and morality, and is a commentary on the social and cultural norms of the time. My Cousin The Colonel is a compelling and thought-provoking read that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and social commentary.As the mint and one or two other necessary ingredients were lacking to our family stores, the idea of julep was dismissed as a vain dream, and its place supplied by iced Congress water, a liquid which my cousin characterized, in a hasty aside to me, as being a drink fit only for imbecile infants of a tender age.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
