At the Back of the North Wind Summary
|
At The Back Of The North Wind -- Adobe PDF ebook. George MacDonald’s classic work. |
|
|
| Yes, yes, answered Diamond, eagerly. "Our window opens like a door, right over the coach-house door. And the wind -- you, ma'am -- came in, and blew the Bible out of the man's hands, and the leaves went all flutter, flutter on the floor, and my mother picked it up and gave it back to him open. |
|
|
| I HAVE been asked to tell you about the back of the north wind. An old Greek writer mentions a people who lived there, and were so comfortable that they could not bear it any longer, and drowned themselves. My story is not the same as his. I do not think Herodotus had got the right account of the place. I am going to tell you how it fared with a boy who went there. - George MacDonald Please Note: This book is easy to read in true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher. The Microsoft eBook has a contents page linked to the chapter headings for easy navigation. The Adobe eBook has bookmarks at chapter headings and is printable up to two full copies per year. Both versions are text searchable. |

|
| This is the powerful story of a young boy named Diamond who travels to the back of the North Wind, the knowledge he learned there, and the wisdom he brought back to the world. As he brings startling truths to those around him, even adults are challenged by his probing questions and penetrating answers. Only when the readers discover the identity of the North Wind do they begin to understand the important message of this enriching classic. |
|
|
| Possibly George Macdonald's best-known fantasy, At the Back of the North Wind has enchanted children and adults for more than a century. A landmark in the development of children's writing, this insightful and enthralling fairy tale is just as enchanting today as when it was first published. Modern readers will thrill to the adventures of little Diamond with the mysterious and majestic North Wind, who is both kind and terrible, and who seems to answer to a far higher power than herself. Newly designed and typeset in a modern 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press. |
