A Canny Countryside is a book written by John Horne and published in 1896. The book is a descriptive account of the countryside of Scotland, particularly the region of Aberdeenshire. Horne takes the reader on a journey through the landscapes, villages, and towns of the area, providing vivid descriptions of the natural beauty and cultural richness of the region.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the countryside. Horne talks about the history and traditions of the area, the people and their way of life, the flora and fauna, and the landscapes and scenery. He also includes anecdotes and stories about his own experiences in the countryside, adding a personal touch to the narrative.Throughout the book, Horne's writing is lyrical and evocative, painting a picture of a land that is both rugged and beautiful, and a people who are hardworking and resilient. He captures the essence of the Scottish countryside, with its rolling hills, misty moors, and sparkling lochs, and brings it to life for the reader.A Canny Countryside is a timeless classic of Scottish literature, and a must-read for anyone interested in the history, culture, and natural beauty of Scotland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
