Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Country Lane: Its Flora and Its Fauna
One advantage which this lane possesses, is, that you may comfortably walk to and fro in it in nearly all seasons. For a considerable portion of its length it is enclosed by high hedges, which afford a winter's shelter and a summer's shade. Not far from one end is planted my humble dwelling, and near to the other are the ivy-clad ruins of an ancient hall. When I walk through it in one direction, I see these relics of a by-gone age, and when I pass in the other, I have the attractive vision of my own sweet home. Gloomy re?ections on the dim past, are followed andcorrected by pleasant thoughts of. The clear present, and cheerful anticipations of the future.
