NOTE: This book has been scanned then OCR has been applied to turn the scanned page images back into Text. This means that the text CAN be re-sized, searches can be performed, & bookmarks can be added, unlike Kindle Books that are only scanned.

Our aim is to provide the reader AND the collector with long out-of-print books at realistic prices. If you load your mobile device with our books, not only will you have fingertip access to a large library of Antiquarian and Out-Of-Print material at reasonable prices, but you can mark them up electronically, always have them for immediate reference, without worrying about damage or loss to expensive bound copies.

We have added a blank space after each paragraph to make reading easier, especially on smaller mobile devices, as well as indenting the first line of each paragraph & put page breaks after each chapter for the same ease of reading.

We have inexpensively published on Kindle E-books format other interesting non-fiction classics on history & science, as well as Civil War titles, such as Abraham Palmer's "History of the 48th NY Regiment."

We will be adding to our Kindle titles regularly. Look for our offerings, in the Kindle store

"The Essential Kahlil Gibran: The Madman, The Forerunner, The Prophet" edited by Harry Polizzi are the first three books published in English by Kahlil Gibran the renowned Lebanese-American, writer, philosopher, poet and artist. All three are here published in one continuous E-book for the enjoyment of the reader. Each book contains the original illustration by Gibran that was included in each separate volume when it were first published.

"The Madman His Parables and Poems," Gibran's first book was published in 1918. It is a slim volume of aphorisms and parables written in biblical cadence somewhere between poetry and prose.

"The Forerunner: His Parables and Poems," is his second book first published in 1920. "The Forerunner" is a memorable collection and it speaks to the heart and mind about such timeless issues as love and death, pride and vanity, foolishness and holiness.

"The Prophet," is Gibran's third book first published in 1923 and his most famous and often quoted work. "The Prophet" speaks of the yearning for unity within us all. Through a series of twenty-six poetic essays, the central character of the book teaches us that only through Love can we truly achieve that unity. It has been translated into more than twenty languages, and is often cited as the most widely read book of the twentieth-century.

Gibran's timeless poetry and prose breathes the spirit of the Orient onto our Western souls and gives us a new interpretation of life as well as an intense beauty.

In the Arab world, Gibran is regarded as a literary and political rebel. His Romantic style was at the heart of a renaissance in modern Arabic literature, especially prose poetry. Though much of Gibran's writings deal with Christianity, especially on the topic of spiritual love, his mysticism is a convergence of several different influences: Christianity, Islam, Sufism, Hinduism and Theosophy.

His beautiful formal language, intense philosophy, and deeply mystical thoughts make him the third most widely read poet after only Shakespeare and Lao Tzu

With each reading, the reader finds deeper meaning and spiritual exposition to Gibran's verse, making him an author that can be read again and again for new discoveries.
