Excerpt from The Story of Don John of AustriaAs on the walls of some tapestried chamber the author displays the Story of Don John of Austria from his engaging childhood to his saintly death. The light as it shines on this Prince Charming, also falls on thosegreat ones of his time who were his friends or foes, and on the multitude of their servants and followers, lingering most lovingly on beautiful Doha Magdalena de Ulloa, as it glints on the golden texture of her unselfish life. In the woof of the background the author has woven many homely touches, which seem to make the figures live again, and, shaking off the dust of more than three centuries, to leave the arras as in some Pavilion d'armide.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
