Backlog Studies is a collection of essays by Charles Dudley Warner, an American essayist and novelist who lived in the late 19th century. The essays in this book cover a wide range of topics, including nature, travel, literature, and social commentary. Warner's writing style is characterized by his humor, wit, and ability to capture the essence of his subjects. In these essays, he shares his observations and insights on various aspects of life, from the beauty of the natural world to the quirks of human behavior. The book is a delightful read for anyone who enjoys thoughtful and entertaining essays on a variety of subjects.I would as soon have an Englishman without side-whiskers as a fire without a big backlog; and I would rather have no fire than one that required no tending, --one of dead wood that could not sing again the imprisoned songs of the forest, or give out in brilliant scintillations the sunshine it absorbed in its growth. Flame is an ethereal sprite, and the spice of danger in it gives zest to the care of the hearth-fire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work
