Excerpt from News of Spring and Other Nature Sutdies Of the eight nature essays contained in this edition, the first, Our City Gardens, has hitherto appeared only in The Daily Mail and is now for the first time reprinted. The re mainder form part of the two volumes entitled The Measure of the Hours and The Double Garden; and I have taken the opportunity not only of revising my translation with some thoroughness, but also of introducing all the additions and corrections which the author has made in the French edition of these two books, issued, in either case, after the publication of the first English version in America.
