Fresh Fields
John Burroughs
An American naturalist crosses the Atlantic to listen for the nightingale he has only read about. John Burroughs rambles through English woods and Carlyle's country, comparing the song-birds of two lands and savoring a gentler, older landscape. Warm, unhurried essays from a beloved observer of the outdoors. Travel with him into the green fields and hedgerows of England.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
