The Twelve Seasons: A Perpetual Calendar for the Country

The book shows signs of wear consistent with its age, particularly on the cover, which is scuffed and worn at the edges. The binding remains intact, and the pages are clean, free from inscriptions or library markings. No dust jacket is present, and the overall condition is fair to good for a paperback of this vintage.

"The Twelve Seasons: A Perpetual Calendar for the Country" by Joseph Wood Krutch, published by William Sloane Associates in New York, is a notable work in nature essays. This edition, a fourth printing from May 1967, offers insights into the natural world through monthly essays. Illustrated by Armin Landeck, the book captures the essence of the changing seasons with artistic flair. Originally copyrighted in 1949, this edition continues to reflect Krutch's profound understanding of nature. While not a first edition, its continued reprinting underscores its lasting appeal. The book is a valuable addition for collectors interested in naturalist literature. The physical condition is indicative of its age, with visible wear on the cover.
