Nature's Serial Story


Book Description

Nature's Serial Story by Edward Payson Rowe is about the tales that nature repeatedly tells in its cozy country homes. Excerpt: "How much it means—what possibilities it suggests! The one I shall describe was built not far from half a century ago, and the lapsing years have only made it more homelike. It has long ceased to be a new object—an innovation—and has become a part of the landscape, like the trees that have grown up around it. Originally painted brown, with the flight of time it has taken a grayish tinge, as if in sympathy with its venerable proprietor."
