Kitap açıklaması
Excerpt from The Wind's WillBicycles cost a lot of money, son, said his astute father, and I don't see what good it will be on Illinois roads, but I'll tell you what I'll do. You cut all the thistles in the pasture, and I'll buy you a bicycle. And mind you tell me if you find any Canadians. Salt's the only thing that will do the business for a Canadian.Christopher considered the situation gravely. Cutting thistles was usually a function of Bill, the hired man asoone of the light tasks with which farmers beguile their helpers into thinking that they are resting on rainy days and between more important matters, such as harvesting and thresh ing. This phase of the situation presented itself to Christopher. What would become of Bill if the prime occupation of his leisure hours was thus wrested from him? Would he not be taking the bread from the mouth of an honest workingman? And would not the entire social fabric be seriously shaken by this blow at its foundation stone the inalienable right of every man in his job Not all the ramifications of the subject were clear in Christopher's mind, but he was sure, at least, that his undertaking some of Bill's staple duties was a serious matter.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
