From Darkness To Light One of the characteristics of the middle age is the lack of interest in education.

Thos universities taught all the basic disciplines with

Chapter 1 One winter night, young Ethan Frome is walking to the town church, where dances are held in the basement, to bring his wife's cousin, Mattie Silver, home.
