Edith Holden was born at Kings Norton, Worcester, in 1871, one of seven children of a Midlands paint manufacturer. The family lived in Knowle in Warwickshire and it was there that she wrote her 'Nature Notes for 1905'. 

It was first published in 1989 under the title The Nature Notes of an Edwardian Lady containing faithful facsimile prints of the original watercolours and sketches, the shading and discolouration are part of the printing process.

Please note that although not published until many years after the more famous 'Country Diary' Nature Notes was an earlier less polished work,  all sketches and watercolours are faithfully reproduced however Diary entries and poems have been typeset.

Please note this is a pre-loved, pre-used vintage item.
