This is John Burroughs 1887 work, “Birds And Poets”. It contains masterful sketches of bird life interspersed with delightful poems, interesting historical information, and beautiful descriptive prose. This volume will appeal to all with a love of nature writing and poetry, and it would make for a fantastic addition to any collection. Contents include: “Birds and Poets”, “Touches Of Nature”, “A Bird Medley”, “April”, “Spring Poems”, “Our Rural Divinity”, “Before Genius”, “Before Beauty”, “Emerson”, and “The Flight Of The Eagle”. John Burroughs (1837 – 1921) was an American naturalist, essayist, and active member of the U.S. conservation movement. Burroughs' work was incredibly popular during his lifetime, and his legacy has lived on in the form of twelve U.S. Schools named after him, Burroughs Mountain, and the John Burroughs Association—which publicly recognizes well-written and illustrated natural history publications. 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.
