Rural Hours is a book written by Susan Fenimore Cooper and published in 1850. The book is a collection of essays and observations about rural life in upstate New York throughout the four seasons. The author, who was the daughter of the famous American novelist James Fenimore Cooper, explores the natural world around her, describing the flora and fauna of the region, the changing weather patterns, and the ways in which people interact with the land. The book is divided into twelve chapters, each corresponding to a month of the year. In each chapter, Cooper provides vivid descriptions of the landscape and the natural phenomena that occur during that time of year. She also reflects on the customs and traditions of rural life, including farming practices, hunting, and fishing. Throughout the book, Cooper emphasizes the importance of preserving the natural world and the need for people to live in harmony with the environment. She also highlights the beauty and wonder of the natural world, encouraging readers to appreciate the simple pleasures of rural life. Overall, Rural Hours is a charming and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on rural life in mid-19th century America. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American literature or 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.
