Synopsis
Excerpt from Guy Rivers: A Tale of Georgia
The entire aspect of the scene, if not absolutely blasted, wears at least a gloomy and discouraging expression, which sad dens the soul of the most careless spectator. The ragged ran ges of forest, almost untrodden by civilized man, the thin and feeble undergrowth, the unbroken silence, the birdless thickets.
