Book Description
Excerpt from The Book of the Seasons, or the Calendar of Nature The increasing prosperity Of the British nation, and the expansion Of its empire by the new colonies which are issuing from it, and are forming, as they settle and enlarge, new branches of dominion toit in the distant regions of our globe, make its first rudiments and humble beginnings more interest ing to us. TO represent these faithfully, and to collect from the perishing or neglected memorials Of former times every circumstance that could exhibit them, before it became im possible to do so from the disappearance of the ancient docu ments, and from the overwhelming ow Of modern events, revolutions, and diversified knowledge, which have made the last fifty years so memorable, was the favourite Object of the author, when in his youthful days he conceived the idea, and attempted to execute it in the following work. That he should have lived to revise its sixth edition, was more than he expected; for it is now thirty-seven years since he published its first volume. This is pleasing: but it is a still greater gratification to Observe, that so much of the atten tion of the public continues to be directed to the transac tions, remains, and language of their anglo-saxon ancestors, and that so many able men still apply themselves to illustrate this truly national subject by various and valuable publica tions. It was one of his earnest wishes that men of talent and industry should be induced to do so, that what he could not but learn imperfectly on several points might be completed by subsequent research. This has been creditable to themselves, and just to our forefathers; and will now rescue our most important antiquities from future Oblivion.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Roll of the Seasons: A Book of Nature Essays The natural year is a ring which can be said to begin and to end nowhere. The diarist is most likely to open his notes on the first of January, because that is the day on which his artificial year opens. As soon as the winter solstice is past we look for signs of waking on the part of flowers and more animate creatures, yet many of them begin their new round of life as soon as the hush of autumn has fallen. The time of the aconite's high summer is commonly called winter. Spring, according to the calendar, does not come till after the snowdrop has blossomed and set its seed. Summer isthe autumn of a very large part of the floral world and the winter of many spring insects. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
