The perfect book not only for the thousands of fans of the Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady but all lovers of nature and nature writing. The writing and paintings, created at the same time as those for Country Diary in 1905 and 1906, follows the seasons at her English home with her charming notes, diary entries, quotes and her choice of poems that celebrate nature, from Wordsworth to Yeats, plus a few of her own. The paintings in Nature Notes have not been seen for decades and can be enjoyed by a new generation of nature lovers in a beautifully produced volume. This treasure of work from a bygone age has a resonance for today s readers as nature writing has proven time and again one of the most cherished forms of writing. And this calm, elegant book on nature is the perfect volume to have as you watch the changing of the seasons yourself.
Edith Holden was an English artist and art teacher. She was born in Birmingham, England. She became famous following the posthumous publication of her diary notes from 1906, in facsimile form, as the book The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady in 1977, which has remained a classic in nature writing ever since.
