Sinopsis
“The first publication of The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady in 1977 was a publishing phenomenon. The facsimile reproduction of Edith Holden’s naturalist’s diary for the year 1906 sold over one million copies in its first year and held the record number of appearances in bestseller lists for 15 years. Now on the 20th anniversary of its publication, we are reissuing the book. Edith Holden’s handwritten works, including her favourite poems, personal thoughts and observations on the wildlife surrounding her Warwickshire home are exquisitely illustrated by beautiful paintings on very page of flora and fauna of the countryside through the seasons.” -from publisher
