''Nature in Downland'' is a classic book written by renowned naturalist and author W. H. Hudson. The book is a detailed and comprehensive account of the flora and fauna found in the downlands of England. The downlands are a unique ecosystem that includes hills and valleys, chalk grasslands, and woodlands. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the downlands. The author describes the various species of animals and plants that are found in this region, including birds, butterflies, mammals, and wildflowers. He also provides a detailed account of the geological history of the downlands, and how it has shaped the landscape and the wildlife that inhabits it. The book is written in a lyrical and poetic style, which makes it a pleasure to read. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the natural history of England and the beauty of its countryside.The power of the sun and its joy is not felt so early on the downs as on the lower country, and last season it was not until the middle of June that I experienced the blissful sensation and feeling in its fullness. Then a day came that was a revelation; I all at once had a deeper sense and more intimate knowledge of what summer really is to all the children of life; for it chanced that on that effulgent day even the human animal, usually regarded as outside of nature, was there to participate in the heavenly bounty.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
