Book Description:
Richard Jefferies (1848-87) remains one of the most thoughtful and most lyrical writers on the English countryside. The Amateur Poacher is a collection of reminiscences of a rural way of life which by the 1870s was beginning to undergo a period of rapid change.
About the Author:
John Richard Jefferies (6 November 1848 – 14 August 1887) was an English nature writer, noted for his depiction of English rural life in essays, books of natural history, and novels. His childhood on a small Wiltshire farm had a great influence on him and provides the background to all his major works of fiction. For all that, these show a remarkable diversity, including Bevis (1882), a classic children's book, and After London (1885), an early work of science fiction.
