The Philippines Past and Present
Reproduction of the original: The Philippines Past and Present by Dean C. Worcester
Invisible City
More than any other European city, Baroque Naples was dominated by convents. Behind their imposing facades and highly decorated churches, the convents of Naples housed the daughters of the city's most exclusive families, women who, despite their cloistered existence, were formidable players in the city's power structure. Invisible City vividly portrays the religious world of seventeenth-century Naples, a city of familial and internecine rivalries, of religious devotion and intense urban politics, of towering structures built to house the virgin daughters of the aristocracy.

The Philippines - Past and Present (Vol. 1&2)

Jonah's Luck
'Jonah's Luck' is a mystery novel written by Fergus Hume. It revolves around a man named Herries, who sees himself as having the same bad luck as the Biblical figure Jonah. He had always been Jonah the unlucky, and Jonah he would remain, so far as his limited vision could see, until the end of his life, in his eyes. Throughout five and twenty years of existence he had suffered nothing but trouble. Everything went wrong with him. This new disaster was all of a piece with the rest of the pattern, that was being woven,--against his will, it would seem--on the looms of life. He wondered, with a sigh, why God permitted so many troubles to befall him, since he could see no good reason for their coming to him so persistently. Then out of sheer desire to do something, he searched his pockets for the remains of his poor fortune.
