BURROUGHS, John, - Fresh Fields.

Title: Fresh Fields.
Description: Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1885. First Edition. A longtime friend of Ralph Waldo Emerson and later Walt Whitman, Burroughs was more of a "nature writer" than philosopher or poet, like his friends. In this volume he covers England, with chapters on Nature in England, English Woods: A Contrast, A Hunt for the Nightingale, English and American Song-Birds, and In Wordsworth's Country, among others. This copy has an owner name in pencil on the front flyleaf; the hinges are cracked but holding; and there is a 3" x 1" chip at the gutter of the front pastedown. Basically a good copy, lacking any dust jacket, if there was one. Unless otherwise noted, our first editions are first printings.
