Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Christmas to-Day
Prelude about the enmity of Nature; as if friendship were merely being agreeable, and not always at heart the loyalty of truth-telling. If Em erson was right in saying that our friends are those who make us do what we can, Nature is the most faithful and constant friend man has found on his mysterious jour ney. When the fire sings its song of summer on the wintry hearth he must be dull who does not hear the friendly note that runs through it.
