Beskrivelse af Walks And Talks Of An American Farmer In England (1852)
Walks and Talks of an American Farmer in England is a travelogue written by Frederick Law Olmsted, an American journalist and landscape architect, in 1852. The book chronicles Olmsted's experiences and observations while traveling through England as a farmer, exploring the countryside and interacting with local farmers and landowners. Through his vivid descriptions of the English landscape, Olmsted provides readers with a glimpse into the rural life of England in the mid-19th century. He discusses the challenges faced by English farmers, the state of agriculture in the country, and the social and economic issues that affected rural communities. Olmsted's writing style is engaging and informative, and he offers a unique perspective on English culture and society from an outsider's point of view. The book is also notable for its insights into Olmsted's own philosophy on agriculture and land use, which would later inform his work as a landscape architect in the United States. Overall, Walks and Talks of an American Farmer in England is a fascinating read for anyone interested in English history, agriculture, or landscape architecture. It offers a valuable glimpse into a bygone era and provides readers with a deeper understanding of the cultural and social forces that shaped both England and the United States during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
