This entirely new diary is a predecessor to the "Country Diary" and is composed in a similar style with Edith Holden's thoughts, watercolours paintings of flowers, plants, birds and butterflies. There are over 150 new paintings showing delightful countryside scenes, including hares, rabbits, squirrels, foxes and other animals which do not appear in the Country Diary. "The Nature Notes of an Edwardian Lady" is not only a companion to the Country Diary but a book that will appeal to all lovers of nature and the countryside.

Breathtaking nature walk, Dec 2 2004
By Tamra L. Monroe "Highland Heritage" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Nature Notes of an Edwardian Lady (Hardcover)
Elizabeth Holden's The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady seems to have more popularity than The Nature Notes, but I have found it to be just as awesome and inspiring as The Country Diary. In fact, if it is possible, I like this one more so than The Country Diary, although its setup is very much the same. The book is broken down by months from January through December. Each month begins with a brief history of the month, related folk lore, and poetry. The art work is wonderful and the entries draw you into the adventures of Ms. Holden. Even though the journal was kept almost 100 years ago, you feel that you are right there beside Ms. Holden, and for me, she has become a friend. She has been a great motivation for me to illustrate my own journals. I would highly recommend this book as well as The Country Diary if you love nature walks and journaling.

The Nature Notes of an Edwardian Lady, Feb 27 2005
By Richard E. Murray - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Nature Notes of an Edwardian Lady (Hardcover)
Edith Holden was an excellent observer of nature and an outstanding artist of what she saw. The inclusion of some of my favorite poems by well known authors makes this book an absolute delight!
