Publisher's Synopsis

The Common Objects Of The Country is a book written by John George Wood and published in 1897. The book is a comprehensive guide to the natural objects and phenomena found in the British countryside. The author takes the reader on a journey through the fields, woods, and waters of rural England, describing in detail the plants, animals, and geological features that can be found there.The book is divided into chapters, each one dedicated to a specific type of object, such as trees, flowers, birds, insects, rocks, and fossils. Each chapter is illustrated with detailed drawings and engravings that help the reader identify the objects described.Wood's writing style is engaging and informative, and he provides a wealth of information about each object, including its habitat, behavior, and uses. He also includes interesting anecdotes and historical facts, making the book not only educational but also entertaining.Overall, The Common Objects Of The Country is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the natural world, and a fascinating glimpse into the rural life of 19th-century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
