Présentation de l'éditeur

Richard Jefferies works. The five entitled, The Farmer at Home, The Labourer s Daily Life, Field-faring Women, An English Homestead, and John Smith s Shanty, appeared in Fraser s Magazine in 1874, long before Jefferies had gained any portion of that fame which was so long in coming, and came in full measure too late. Of the three letters to the Times, written in 1872, one was republished, with the permission of Mrs. Jefferies, in an appendix to Mr. Walter Besant s Eulogy of Richard Jefferies. It finds its natural place in this volume with the other papers, which give so clear a picture of the life of all classes of the cultivators of the soil in the early seventies.
