About this listen

Discover the captivating world of Rowland Evans Robinson, a once-celebrated writer from rural Vermont, born in 1833 and now largely forgotten. An accomplished artist, Robinson first made his mark in New York City, drawing whimsical cartoons for the funny papers before returning to the serene landscapes of Vermont. There, he penned nearly a dozen beloved books that beautifully capture the essence of nature and rural farm life. Despite losing his sight between the ages of 44 and 60, he continued to write with the unwavering support of his wife, Anna. This enchanting collection of short essays elegantly portrays the ever-changing seasons and moods of New England, inviting readers to immerse themselves in its natural splendor. - Summary by Nemo
