At Large is a book written by Arthur Christopher Benson. It is a collection of essays and observations on various topics, including literature, art, nature, and human behavior. The book is divided into four sections, each with its own theme. The first section focuses on the beauty of nature and the importance of appreciating it. The second section explores the world of literature, discussing the works of various authors and their impact on society. The third section delves into the complexities of human behavior, examining the nature of love, friendship, and morality. Finally, the fourth section is a collection of miscellaneous essays on various topics, including travel, religion, and philosophy. Throughout the book, Benson's writing is reflective, insightful, and often poetic. At Large is a thought-provoking read that offers a unique perspective on the world around us.What no doubt heightened the pleasure for me was that I had been passing through a somewhat dreary period. Things had been going wrong, had tied themselves into knots. Several people whose fortunes had been bound up with my own had been acting perversely and unreasonably--at least I chose to think so. My own work had come to a standstill. I had pushed on perhaps too fast, and I had got into a bare sort of moorland tract of life, and could not discern the path in the heather. There did not seem any particular task for me to undertake; the people whom it was my business to help, if I could, seemed unaccountably and aggravatingly prosperous and independent.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
