Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from The Prestons

Here are some mornings in early summer when it seems to me that the beauty of things wakes me and calls to me. I make a hasty toilet and go gently downstairs before any of the family is up, and take possession of my house and all that belongs to it. The new-washed aspect of the earth and the long inverted shadows of early morning and the crystal freshness give the world a legendary aspect. Every time I see life from the vantage of dawn, I vow never again to miss the first morning rapture of things - and then I never waken early for a month of Sun days.
