Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Wild Life Near Home
And yet! It is a bare world, in spite of the snap and crispness and the signs of harvest every where a wider, silenter, sadder world, though I cannot own a less beautiful world, than in sum mer. The corn is cut, the great yellow shocks standing over the level fields like weather beaten tepees in deserted Indian villages frostshave mown the grass and stripped the trees, so that, from a bluff along the creek, the glistening Cohansey can be traced down miles of its course, and through the parted curtains, wide vistas of meadow and farm that were entirely hidden by the green foliage lie Open like a map.
