In the early 1800s, John Astor made the fateful decision to make good on his long-held dream of establishing a fur-trading company in the Northwest United States. Astor later convinced Washington Irving, one of the most important figures in nineteenth-century American literature, to create a non-fiction account of the operation's origins. The result, Astoria, is a fascinating work of history. Astoria is a history book published in 1836 by Washington Irving. The full title being "Astoria: Or, Enterprise Beyond the Rocky Mountains". The book was commissioned by John Jacob Astor as an official history of his company's expedition to Oregon in 1810–1812. The book became a bestseller in 1836 and at the time was required reading in some schools. Astoria has been read as a vivid and fascinating history, comparable indeed to the finest of romances, but rooted in the rough and hardy life of trapping, hunting, and exploration.

Thomas Hardy’s final novel “Jude the Obscure” began as a serial publication on December 1894 before being published in book form the following year. It is the story of its titular character Jude Fawley, a young lower-class man with dreams of being a scholar, and his relationships with his wife, Arabella, and his free-spirited cousin, Sue Bridehead. The novel follows the life of Jude from his youth living in a village in southern England where he works in a bakery and studies Classical Greek and Latin in his spare time with hopes of one day becoming a scholar at Christminster, a fictional city modeled after Oxford. His dreams are dashed however when he becomes ensnared by deceit into marriage with Arabella Donn, a coarse and superficial girl. What follows is a classic and tragic tale that plays upon many themes, principally of which is the idea that one’s ruinous downfall is the product of having lived a sinful life. Having been harshly criticized in its day for its scandalous portrayals, “Jude the Obscure” has since been recognized as one of Hardy’s finest and most intricate works.

本套书包括《基督山伯爵9册》和《三个火枪手6册》共15册。《基督山伯爵》The Count of Monte Cristo is an adventure novel by French author Alexandre Dumas (père). It is one of the author's most popular works completed in 1844. The story takes place in France, Italy, and islands in the Mediterranean during the historical events of 1815–1839: the era of the Bourbon Restoration through the reign of Louis-Philippe of France. It begins just before the Hundred Days period (when Napoleon returned to power after his exile). The historical setting is a fundamental element of the book, an adventure story primarily concerned with themes of hope, justice, vengeance, mercy, and forgiveness. It centres on a man who is wrongfully imprisoned, escapes from jail, acquires a fortune, and sets about getting revenge on those responsible for his imprisonment. However, his plans have devastating consequences for the innocent as well as the guilty. In addition, it is a story that involves romance, loyalty, betrayal, and selfishness, shown throughout the story as characters slowly reveal their true inner nature.《三个火枪手》A timeless tale of adventure, romance, intrigue, and revenge, "The Three Musketeers"is the captivating story .A historical romance, this novel tells of the adventures of the hot-headed young Gascon, d'Artagnan and his three companions Athos, Porthos and Aramis as they gallantly defend the Queen of France, using their wit and their swords. They must foil the nefarious plotting of Cardinal Richelieu against the King and Queen, despite his appearance as an ally. D'Artagnan and the three Musketeers must also overcome the villainous machinations of Milady de Winter, whose lethal criminality threatens those in political power and the love of d'Artgnan for Constance Bonacieux. Dumas' classic story, first serialized in 1844, has enthralled readers with its fast-paced plot, endearing characters, and romantic ideals, immortalized by the motto" one for all, all for one.

本套书包括《艾格妮丝·格雷3册》和《威尔德菲尔庄园的房客6册》共9册。《艾格妮丝·格雷》Agnes Grey is the debut novel of English author Anne Bront? (writing under the pen name of Acton Bell), first published in December 1847, and republished in a second edition in 1850. The novel follows Agnes Grey, a governess, as she works within families of the English gentry. Scholarship and comments by Anne's sister Charlotte Bront? suggest the novel is largely based on Anne Bront?'s own experiences as a governess for five years. Agnes, her sister Mary, and their mother all try to keep expenses low and bring in extra money, but Agnes is frustrated that everyone treats her like a child. To prove herself and to earn money, she is determined to get a position as a governess. Eventually, she obtains a recommendation from a well-placed acquaintance, is offered a position, and secures her parents' permission. With some misgivings, she travels to Wellwood house to work for the Bloomfield family. The choice of central character allows Anne to deal with issues of oppression and abuse of women and governesses, isolation and ideas of empathy. An additional theme is the fair treatment of animals. Agnes Grey also mimics some of the stylistic approaches of bildungsromans, employing ideas of personal growth and coming to age, but representing a character who in fact does not gain in virtue.《威尔德菲尔庄园的房客》This work is the second and final novel by the English author Anne Bront?. It was first published in 1848 under the pseudonym Acton Bell. Probably the most shocking of the Bront?s' novels, it had an instant and phenomenal success, but after Anne's death her sister Charlotte prevented its re-publication. Most critics now consider The Tenant of Wildfell Hall to be one of the first feminist novels. The novel is framed as a series of letters from Gilbert Markham to his friend and brother-in-law about the events connected with the meeting of his wife. A mysterious young widow arrives at Wildfell Hall, an Elizabethan mansion which has been empty for many years, with her young son and a servant. She lives there in strict seclusion under the assumed name Helen Graham and soon finds herself the victim of local slander. Refusing to believe anything scandalous about her, Gilbert befriends Helen and discovers her past. In her diary, Helen depicts her husband's physical and moral decline through alcohol and her desperate attempts to save their son from his influence in the dissipated aristocratic society from which she ultimately flees. The depiction of marital strife and women's professional identification has also a strong moral message mitigated by the authors's belief in universal salvation.

The History of Pendennis: His Fortunes and Misfortunes, His Friends and His Greatest Enemy (1848–1850) is a novel by the English author William Makepeace Thackeray. The novel took two years for him to write. Set in 19th century London, England, this novel features a young English gentleman Arthur Pendennis born in the country who sets out to seek his place in life and society. The novel portrays his love affairs with the callous Blanche Amory and poor Fanny. Both of them marry other people, and Pendennis finally weds Laura Bell, his adopted sister, who had always loved him. The characters include the snobbish social hanger-on Major Pendennis and the tipsy Captain Costigan. Miss Amory and Sir Francis Clavering are somewhat reminiscent of Becky Sharp and Sir Pitt from Vanity Fair. In line with other Thackeray's works, Pendennis offers an insightful and satiric picture of human character and aristocratic society. The masterful characterizations include the snobbish Major Pendennis and the tipsy Captain Costigan.

《斯泰尔斯庄园奇案》从*次世界大战期间始落笔创作，据作者说，灵感主要来自于作者在医院做志愿者时的经历。故事内容主要如下：斯泰尔斯庄园的女主人埃米莉·英格尔索普夫人掌管着庄园的财政大权。在某个周二的凌晨，在自己的房间里因中毒而身亡，而通往外界的房间的三个门全部都从里面锁上的。一个名叫波罗的大侦探受了调查此案的任务。他在调查此案的过程中发现，壁炉里有烧掉的遗嘱还存留的一些碎纸片，咖啡杯好像也是被摔碎的等疑。*的疑犯其实就是比死者小20几岁的丈夫阿尔弗雷德·英格尔索普先生。不过，小伙子却有不在场的有力证据。此外，还有死者与前夫生的两个儿子以及相关的几个其他人，几乎所有人都有犯罪机会，也就是说，每个人都有许多疑。那么，到底凶手到底是谁呢？抑或是几个人合谋把人害死？ 关于阿加莎·克里斯蒂笔下的波罗大侦探，有必要多介绍些相关情况。其英语拼写为Hercule Poirot，Hercule里的H不发音，正如Poirot里的t不发音 一样。阿加莎·克里斯蒂将其祖籍设定为比利时。因此，书中常常可以读到波罗大侦探在自我介绍时，总是很风趣地说，“一个比利时人”。波罗大侦探的名字的来历则是这样的：它来自于两部侦探小说里的两个侦探的名字，一个叫Hercule Popeau，另外 一个则叫Monsieur Poiret, 而后面的这位则是一个退休的比利时警官，长期居住在伦敦。阿加莎·克里斯蒂从中各取一个名字，形成了Hercule Poirot。

一百年前，美国作家薇拉·凯瑟（Willa Cather 1873-1947）发表了美国西部文学的经典之作《我的安东尼亚》，以饱含深情的笔墨描绘了19世纪末美国垦荒时代的自然景观与历史沧桑，以别具一格的艺术手法塑造了英勇顽强的拓荒者形象，她也因此成为垦荒时代的代言人。小说以叙述者吉姆·伯登的视角，讲述移民女孩安东尼亚的成长故事。小说结构匀称，情节简洁明快，文笔从容典雅，表达细腻，想象力丰富，具有抒情诗一般的品格。她打破传统线性叙事模式，摒弃第三人称全知视角，多角度塑造了一个立体化的女主人公形象。作者隐身于叙述者吉姆背后，将其崇尚的价值理念融入人物的生活经历中，例如安东尼亚，就寄寓了作家追求善良、勤劳、乐观、热爱自然的美好情愫。

《大河之战》就是这位英国前首相温斯顿·邱吉尔先生年轻时候所著的一本很著名的书，是关于英国与苏丹战争的历史内容，换言之，是邱吉尔先生亲历的英国重新征服苏丹过程的*手历史记述。该征服过程发生于1899年。温斯顿·邱吉尔先生记录了他作为一名英国军官在持续将近20年的苏丹马赫迪战争期间的经历。所谓“苏丹马赫迪战争”，是指为了反对英国殖民统治，哈利法·阿卜杜拉·穆罕默德领导反抗军，对抗由基奇纳勋爵领导的英国军队展的武装斗争。“马赫迪”，自称马赫迪·穆罕默德·艾哈迈德的继承人，因不满英国殖民当局、埃及封建王朝和苏丹封建主的重重压迫，被迫发动了这场反抗战争。《大河之战》是温斯顿·邱吉尔继《马拉坎德野战纪实》之后出版的第二本著作，本书出版时有上下两卷，总页码超过千页。后于1902年再版时被缩减为一卷。在书中，温斯顿·邱吉尔写道，他之所以报名参战，是因为像很多英国军官一样，他的初衷是希望通过亲自参加*前线的战斗，以获得军人必须拥有的*手经验，来发展自己未来的职业军人生涯。温斯顿·邱吉尔并不希望自己只是在军队里过于安稳，一帆风顺地度过。他那颗年轻的心，关注所有发生在身边的或遥远的地方的战争的情况。他渴望参与战争。

小说*章肇始，年少的斯蒂芬主人公出场，不过他不能够以复杂的词汇来描述自己的世界。他对周遭世界的因果关系并不关心，因此眼前的世界在他的体验过程中，呈现出某种混乱而又不能梳理有序的局面。又过几年，史蒂芬始沉迷于宗教，此时，他的思维能力似乎有了很大的提升，能以更清晰的逻辑思维、更成人化的思维方式来思考这个世界了。     小说的章节也从这里始变得井然有序，逻辑始清晰起来。随着史蒂芬的思维方式变得越来越成熟，他对周遭世界的感知力也变得愈加敏感起来。当然，他仍然很盲目地信赖着教会所说的一切，所规定的一切。他那充满罪恶感的激情以及宗教狂热，时常阻碍着他的理性思维。似乎小说一直发展到*后章节，主人公了大学，其思维才终于变得完全理性起来。事实上，詹姆斯·乔伊斯可能是旨在通过对这一整个思维过程的描写，来展现一个人的成长过程：如何从情绪化一步步演变成有独立思考能力，*后成人世界的。     令人感到饶有兴趣的是，这个名叫史蒂芬的小说主人公的经历，就是詹姆斯·乔伊斯自己的年轻时的亲身经历，或亲历的心路历程。读者通过阅读此书，就可以从中发现一个文学天才的整个心理成熟过程。史蒂芬自始至终痴迷于语言本身，对宗教一直保持理性意义上的关心与关注，对家庭保持高度关注，对文化更是给予重视。当然，史蒂芬*全身心投的，还是塑造自己的审美情趣。在追求审美情趣的过程中，我们可以深刻感受到史蒂芬，或干脆就是詹姆斯·乔伊斯本人的努力与奋斗的坚持与艰辛，以达到审美哲学新高度。同时，也能细致地感受到作者内心所发出的使命感的呼召声。

该小说讲述西蒙爵士是个死了三百年的凼灵，一直出没在坎特维尔城堡，并以吓人为荣，而搬来的美 庭却不惧怕幽灵。他们之间发生了一系列让人发笑的“惊吓”故事。该小说跌宕起伏的情节铺设展示了王尔德的叙述技巧和机敏的幽默，优雅的文字间充满了对人类不幸的同情和对爱的世界的向往。
