Redwood A Tale (Classic Reprint)

by Catharine Maria Sedgwick

Excerpt from Redwood: A Tale The attractions of novelty are too numerous and too evi dent to require argument or detail for their elucidation. Every one knows that new books, and especially new novels will be sought for and read, while those of more ancient date are dis regarded. Many read them only because they are new, and to such they do not come in competition with any other descrip tion of reading, but are merely suffered to seize on a vacant hour which might otherwise be less profitably employed.
