Description
""Duds"" is a book written by Henry C. Rowland. The book is a collection of short stories that revolve around the theme of failure. Each story features a character who has experienced some kind of failure in their life, whether it be a failed relationship, a failed career, or a failed dream.

The stories are written in a simple and straightforward style, making them easy to read and understand. Overall, ""Duds"" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on the topic of failure.1920. The book begins: The raid was begun with such swift stealth, to be then carried on in so silent and vicious a manner that Captain Phineas Plunkett, passing the house at that moment, was shocked and startled. It was on that widest of fronts where the public peace is never permanent-the water front. This particular sector was a shabby-genteel street in South Brooklyn, where the grass sprouts between the paving stones, and the jungle of back yards borders on a No Man's Land enclosed in hoardings and containing everything under the sun that is not immediately required, a sort of manufacturing catch-all. The hour was one o'clock of a raw, late February morning and Captain Plunkett was returning from the bedside of a lonely friend who was convalescing poorly from the flu.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
