“Our clothing is good sheepskins
Grey russet for our wives.”
Corridon’s song from the “Complete Angler.”
A whimsical, wholly delightful adventurous assay at country life. This volume carries on in a delectable fashion all that exquisiteness in writing that characterized an earlier book, The Open Window. The story progresses from the buying of the old farm through all the humorous entangling mysteries that enhearten and confound the amateur householder.
