Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Buds, Briers and Berries
The longest piece, entitled The Problem of Life, is but a collection of short pieces, written at different times, far apart, and from very different motives, and fitted with a prologue and an epilogue, and connected in its various parts by links more or less appropriate, for just the purpose of leaving it to my children as a concise epitome of my spiritual convictions. Those to whom or for whom they were written, and those for whom they are now published, will, I know, overlook their many crudities and imperfections.
