When Jefferies moved to the outskirts of London to be closer to the hub of literary England, he was surprised to discover an abundance of wildlife in the area. Nature Near London is a collection of his essays exulting in the pleasures of the region’s natural world and rich landscape—from herbs and trees to birds and the breeze.

About the Author

John Richard Jefferies (1848–1887) was an English nature writer. He deeply experienced the world around him—something he describes in detail in the introspective The Story of My Heart: An Autobiography, which is also a passionate outcry against a mechanistic age. Jefferies wrote a number of other books, including The Amateur Poacher and Round About a Great Estate.
