Excerpt from Some Players Personal Sketches<br><br>Modjeska belongs to another century, and rich as this ebullient era is in her possession, it is quite unworthy so bril liant and unusual a personality, a genius so enthralling and aesthetic, a woman so exquisitely attuned in delicate femininity and picturesque force of intellect; and she rises out of the hurry and turmoil of modernity like a Druid priestess waking from a sleep of centuries, Shaking the oak leaves from her beautiful brow, and smiling out fathomless knowledge at the brand-new young world.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
