The work draws from the author's reflections and experiences over a span of years, presenting a range of topics that encompass nature, literature, and personal musings. It hints at a thoughtful exploration of the beauty of the natural world, alongside cultural commentary, making it appealing for readers interested in nuanced observations about life and the environment. The opening of the book sets the stage with a prefatory note where Lowell introduces the collection, explaining that the essays included were composed over the last fifteen years. He expresses his intention to compile these writings as a means of 'shutting them between two covers' to make space for new thoughts. The initial essay, "My Garden Acquaintance," begins with the author reminiscing about the joy he found in reading Gilbert White's "Natural History of Selborne," drawing parallels between White's observations of nature and his own experiences. Lowell invokes a vivid portrayal of his garden and its inhabitants, offering insights into the interplay between humanity and nature, which will be a recurring theme throughout the collection.
