Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Beauty for Ashes
In spring the orchards were a cloud of pink, and the fields were star-sown with anemones and spring beauties. Later they were covered with blu ets. The Shady country lanes trailed with wild roses, and the woods were sweet with fern. In win ter there was as much reason for rapture, when the fields were untracked Slopes of dazzling white, when the fences were piled with marvellous drifts, and frost pictures covered the window panes.
