The 19th impression of a 1977 facsimile reproduction of Edith Holden’s enchanting 1906 nature journal.
This hardcover is in excellent condition. The pages are clean and unmarked, the binding is tight, and the book itself presents beautifully. The dust jacket shows sun discoloration around the spine and left side but is otherwise intact and very presentable.
Holden’s handwritten notes, seasonal observations, and exquisite watercolour illustrations of birds, plants, and landscapes offer a nostalgic glimpse into the English countryside at the turn of the 20th century.
A true collector’s item or thoughtful gift for lovers of nature, art, or British history.
