A Northern Countryside
Author: Rosalind Richards
Publisher: DigiCat
ISBN:
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 119
Book Description
Our county lies in a northern State, in the midst of one of those districts known geographically as "regions of innumerable lakes." It is in good part wooded—hilly, irregular country, not mountainous, but often bold and marked in outline. Save for its lakes, strangers might pass through it without especial notice; but its broken hills have a peculiar intimacy and lovableness, and to us it is so beautiful that new wonder falls on us year after year as we dwell in it.
