The Magnificent Adventure

Publisher Marketing: Excerpt from The Magnificent Adventure: This Being the Story of the World's Greatest Exploration, and the Romance of a Very Gallant Gentleman A Woman, tall, somewhat angular, dark of hair and eye, strong of features - a woman now approaching middle age - sat looking out over the long, tree-clad slopes that ran down from the gallery front of the mansion house to the gate at the distant roadway. She had sat thus for some moments, many moments, her gaze intently fixed, as though waiting for something - something or someone that she did not now see, but expected soon to see. It was late afternoon of a day so beautiful that not even old Albemarle, beauty spot of Virginia, ever produced one more beautiful - not in the hundred years preceding that day, nor in the century since then. For this was more than a hundred years ago; and what is now an ancient land was then a half opened region, settled only here and there by the great plantations of the well-to-do. The house that lay at the summit of the long and gentle slope, flanked by its wide galleries - its flung doors opening it from front to rear to the gaze as one approached - had all the rude comfort and assuredness usual with the gentry of that time and place.
