A Country Woman's Journal by Margaret Shaw

A Country Woman's Journal by Margaret Shaw

Brilliant butterflies, songbirds and seabirds, flowers and weeds, bees and bugs: travelling widely in Britain and in France and Italy between October 1926 and December 1928, Margaret Shaw records in watercolour and prose the rich flora and fauna of the unspoiled countryside of the 1920s.

'With fascinating observations and a meticulous hand, Margaret Shaw created a remarkable record of English wildlife in the 1920s' - Country Life

Bom in 1885 into a family of wealthy industrialists, Margaret Shaw was a wealthy spinster, whose passion for nature was apparent from her earliest years when she lived in the house formerly owned by the great naturalist, Gilbert White, author of The Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne.
