Book Overview

A beautiful companion volume to the hugely popular The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady--a trove of exquisite paintings and notes from the same author that have been unpublished and unseen for decades.

The perfect book not only for the thousands of fans of The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady but also 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 Holden's 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 this 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 for watching the changing of the seasons yourself.
