Pitzmaroon: or, The Magic Hammer

Charles A. Beach

4.9/5 (30697 ratings)

Description:Fantasy wherein a blacksmith finds some old books and inherits some magic.It can be hair-raising reading children’s books from the 19th century here in the 21st century. Sensibilities have changed. Charles A. Beach’s children’s book, originally published in 1874, is full of adventure, making it undeniably fun to read—your kids and grandkids will surely get a kick out of it—but the story is also full of blood, cannibalism, cheating, overcharging, beheading, and general violence. And if all that isn’t enough to give you doubts, he throws in some racism, some anti-Semitism, and even some polygamy—two beautiful wives is one of Pitzmaroon’s rewards at the end of the story... suggesting, to married men everywhere, that Mr. Beach was a lifelong bachelor. But in spite of the various and sundry flaws of political-incorrectness and bigotry, the 21st-century reader eventually has to admit: this book from a century and a half ago, with its blood, gore, violence, and etc., is a helluva lot more fun to read than most of the ingratiatingly saccharine sap we produce in our own, so-called more civilized era. Parents and grandparents are going to watch the yawns and inattention disappear from their listeners’ little faces, and watch those same faces light up as the little munchkins start listening and even laughing out loud when they start hearing Pitzmaroon being read to them. Here’s the thing: anybody with children or grandchildren who seem extra difficult to engage in the process of learning to read, maybe something like “Pitzmaroon”—with its magician who periodically vomits gallons of blood, its 27 humorously grotesque illustrations, and its virtuous hero who is often not very virtuous at all—is just the thing to engage them.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
