Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from My Favorite Lectures of Long Ago: For Friends Who Remember Sitting on my southern piazza, this perfect afternoon in the perfect month of June, looking out over "Breezy Meadows," with their rich growth of grass, fields of waving grain, and ripening crops, while my cows graze in the distant pasture; listening to the raucous yet not unpleasant voices of the conceited turkey-gobbler and his meek, drab-hued mates, the geese, always perfectly at home on my farm, the mournful "koquet, koquet" of the imprisoned guineas, and the cheerful cackle of the business hen, I realize that my happiest hours are now those devoted to outdoor sports and agricultural enterprises no longer a blue-stocking, but a full-fledged farmer! Emerson says that "a farm is a mute gospel." To me it has rather proved to be a revelation, noisy, expensive, and at times depressing or exasperating. Still, I love this life and shall never give it up. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
