Written in the late 19th century, this book reflects the Romantic ideals of the time, emphasizing the beauty and wonder of the natural world. Burroughs' writing is characterized by his poetic language and deep connection to the environment, making this book a delightful read for nature enthusiasts and admirers of classic American literature. Each essay is a charming exploration of various aspects of wildlife, including birds, insects, and of course, ducks. Through his writing, Burroughs invites readers to see the world through new eyes, appreciating the small moments of beauty and humor in nature. John Burroughs, a renowned naturalist and essayist, drew inspiration from his own experiences in the countryside and his deep admiration for the outdoors. His close observations of wildlife and the environment led him to write numerous essays and books that celebrate the wonders of the natural world. 'The Wit of a Duck and Other Papers' serves as a testament to Burroughs' deep love for nature and his ability to capture its essence in his writing. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a delightful escape into the world of nature, filled with wisdom, humor, and captivating observations.
