The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady Hardcover – 27 Aug. 1987

This is a beautiful book, of an era when life was good.

Beautiful book, the second one I’ve purchased. One I’m reading and one for making into journals… would definitely recommend

Book in perfect condition ..

Beautiful book, love reading it and using it with my drawing and painting

Beautiful illustrations

I bought this book back in the '70s when it was highly popular, but somehow lost my copy, so when I saw a hardback copy for just one penny I had to have it! It was of course used, but in very good condition, just slight discolouration to the edges of the pages, but for me that just added to its vintage charm. There were two dents in the top edges of the hard cover, caused I think by the postman shoving it through the letterbox. That could have been avoided if it had been sent in a cardboard book box rather than a plastic bag, but since the book was purely for my own enjoyment it doesn't matter too much. I shall enjoy reading it again and studying the illustrations - especially as I also have the adult colouring book. A highly recommended book.

lovely book

very good and very interesting. The layout is in sections of months of the year 1906 it goes in to detail of the wildlife and scientific manes are used as well as common names. There is some great poems in the book. On the back there is a small bit of information on the book about Edith Holden (the Edwardian Lady) witch was mainly focused on two parts of her life, the Diary and her death but is only done on the back cover short. each month has a description of were the word comes from. I have not read all this book yet but I am really enjoying it. this book would be found interesting to anybody who is interested in the Natural history or the Edwardian period.
