Rural Hours is a book written by Susan Fenimore Cooper and published in 1850. The book is a collection of essays about nature and rural life in upstate New York, where Cooper lived. The essays are organized by season, and describe the flora and fauna of the region, as well as the daily life of its inhabitants. Cooper writes in a descriptive and poetic style, capturing the beauty of the natural world around her. She also reflects on the relationship between humans and nature, and the importance of preserving the environment. In addition to its literary value, Rural Hours is also significant as an early example of American nature writing. It was one of the first books to focus on the natural world as a subject in its own right, rather than as a backdrop for human events. Overall, Rural Hours is a timeless classic that continues to inspire and delight readers with its vivid descriptions of rural life and the natural world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
