Author Description

In Pursuit of Spring is a travelogue written by Edward Thomas and first published in 1914. The book follows the author's journey on foot from London to the Quantock Hills in Somerset, England, in search of the first signs of spring. Thomas describes his experiences along the way, including encounters with people, animals, and the changing landscape. He also reflects on the natural world and the beauty of the English countryside. The book is known for its lyrical prose and vivid descriptions, and is considered a classic of nature writing. Thomas himself went on to become a renowned poet, and In Pursuit of Spring is seen as an important precursor to his later work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
