Maxwell, William Babington: General Mallock's Shadow. v1. 21 Nov 2015
William Babington Maxwell (1866–1938) was a British novelist. Born on June 4, 1866, he was the third surviving child and second eldest son of novelist Mary Elizabeth Braddon.
Excerpt A DULL grey afternoon in March, heavy clouds driving low, cold wind sighing as it swept over the heather; and not a glint of sunshine, not a sign of life, to relieve the widespread desolation of the Yorkshire moorland. For mile after mile the empty road rises, dips, curves, and there is no roof or chimney to cheer the eye, until on the high ledge of Redchurch. Down one comes to the first outpost of civilisation.
