The Vulture

The Vulture by Arthur O. Friel is offered here in a clean English digital edition prepared for fluent ebook reading. The work stands within classics and gives modern readers direct access to a public-domain classic with navigable structure and a restrained typographic presentation. The opening pages establish the book's atmosphere with this first movement: I BELIEVE that story of yours, senhor. You tell me that while you two North Americans were far out on the great ocean, steaming southward on your way to explore our Amazon headwaters, a vulture came speeding from nowhere and settled in the rigging of another boat near you; and that soon afterward a This edition is suited to readers who want a reliable, uncluttered version of the text for study, rediscovery, and sustained reading.
