The book begins: Twin spirals of blue smoke rose on either side of the spur, crept tendril-like up two dark ravines, and clearing the feathery green crests of the trees, drifted lazily on upward until, high above, they melted shyly together and into the haze that veiled the drowsy face of the mountain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
