Excerpt from Songs of the DesertAlmost everybody will be disappointed in this book, because they have been expecting something humor ous. But there is a sad and serious side to every man's life, and in mine there has been a homesick feeling haunting my soul since I came West, and, while roam ing over the deserts of Colorado, where the silence feels as heavy and gloomy as the shadow of death, these songs came into my heart like requiems sung over the graves where I am fast burying the memories of my boyhood friends, for the many faces I loved in the long ago seem to be fading away from Memory's view, like the little whirlwinds of sand that go dancing out towards the horizon and disappear forever.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
