"Botany has aquired the undeserved reputation of being a dry, academic subject. This is most unfortunate because it has deprived many people, who are otherwise interested in the life of the countryside, of knowledge, mostly easily gained, which adds immensely to the wonder and enjoyment of all that grows in field and forest and beside every road and river. In this book the Author has clearly succeeded in showing that plants are as much alive and interesting as are animals, birds and fish." Contents: Preface; Winter; Spring in the Woods; Summer Grasslands; Autumn: Back to the Woods; Glossary of Terms; Index. Botany, Plants, Natural History, English Countryside.
