About This Item
MP3 Audio CD. Perhaps no other American author has a huge empathy with, and a dedicated appreciation of, rural life in all its stages such as agriculture, camping, fishing, strolling; than has John Burroughs. His works are evocative of the land, and have such "freshness and primal sweetness," that we do not be expressed that the fun he finds from his strolls and adventures is by no ways more than when he walks inside of his home once again. As he details us on many instances, he discovers he can acquire further from his outdoor happenings by contemplating them throughout, and composing them out later. These papers are lovely tales of birds, bees, foxes, hounds, fruits such as apples, trees, squirrels and mainly on nature penned by a man who adores looking at them and scribing of them. The book contains: Biographical Sketch; Introduction By Mary E. Burt; Birds; Bird Enemies; The Tragedies of the Nests; Bees; An Idyl of the Honey Bee; and The Pastoral Bees. John Burroughs was a United States naturalist and nature writer, an active member in the United States conservation movement. The first set of his essays was Wake-Robin in 1871. In the lexes of his biographer Edward Renehan, John?s specific individuality was not as much than that of a scientific naturalist thus "a literary naturalist with a duty to record his own unique perceptions of the natural world." The outcome was a book whose reverberation with the sound of its social instance elucidates both its success during those times, and its comparative oblivion after. Most of John?s works were first seen in famous magazines. He is well known for his perceptions on birds, flowers and country side panoramas, but his essay subjects also vary to devotional, philosophy, and prose.
