About This Book

A series of travel essays and sketches offering close, personal impressions of the Welsh countryside and its inhabitants, mixing vivid landscape description, domestic vignettes, and character portraits encountered on rural journeys. The writer moves from first impressions on entering the country through farmhouse scenes, conversations with local people, and a month-by-month sequence of seasonal observations. Interspersed are reflections on artistic responses to the scenery and notes on the accompanying color plates, producing a lyrical, observant account that balances topographical detail with subjective feeling.
