Before he designed Central Park, Frederick Law Olmsted walked the farms of England to see what America could learn. In this first part he tramps the countryside, studying fields, hedges, livestock, and the rural life around him with a young farmer's keen practical eye. Travel writing rich in agricultural detail. Walk the English lanes with a future master.
