First published in 1883, "Nature Near London" presents an authentic illustration of the idyllic countryside to be found near London, England. This volume constitutes a must-read for all lovers of nature writing, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of vintage literature. John Richard Jefferies (1848 - 1887) was an English nature writer. He is famous for his exceptional depictions of English country life in his natural history books, essays, and novels. Most of his major works were inspired by his early life spent on a small farm in Wiltshire, England. Other notable works by this author include: "Bevis" (1882), a classic children's novel, and "After London" (1885), an fantastic example of classic nature writing. Contents include: "Woodlands", "Footpaths", "Flocks Of Birds", "Nightingale Road", "A Brook", "A London Trout", "A Barn", "Wheatfields", "The Crows", "Heathlands", "The River", "Nutty Autumn", "Round A London Copse", "Magpie Fields", "Herbs", "Trees About Town", "To Brighton", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

3.0 out of 5 stars terrible edition of a wonderful book
Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2016
Verified Purchase
While this is a rewarding, classic work of nature writing, I don't recommend buying this cheap edition, which seems a scanned copy in small type with no editorial or publication information given. Better to buy an older edition that was properly edited.

A fascinating glimpse into the now-lost countryside around west London in the Victorian age.

1.0 out of 5 stars Another rough draft from "Printed in Great Britain by Amazon"
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 2, 2021
Verified Purchase
Another appalling decision to sell this book in its current print run. Mistakes include:- No page numbers, no information on the cover illustration, constant repetition of title and chapter headings in the wrong places. Duplication of the author's name on the cover. No title on the spine. This is even worse than the copy I received last year of Paul Kelver by Jerome K Jerome "Printed in Great Britain by Amazon". Please send a replacement when you've sorted out the editing.
