Originally published in 1892, this work by English nature writer, Richard Jefferies, is a collection of his papers that appeared in magazines and newspapers early in his career. Published posthumously, it includes pieces titled 'The farmer at Home', 'An English Homestead' 'The Coming of Summer', and many more delights, exhibiting his great talent at capturing the wonder of the English countryside. We are republishing this work with a brand new introductory biography on Jefferies, to help place this publication in context with his other works.
