Rural Hours is a book written by Susan Fenimore Cooper and published in 1850. The book is a collection of essays that describe the natural beauty and rhythms of rural life in upstate New York during the mid-19th century. The author, who was the daughter of the famous novelist James Fenimore Cooper, spent much of her life living in rural areas and was an avid observer of the natural world. In this book, she shares her observations of the changing seasons, the habits of local wildlife, and the daily lives of the people who lived in the countryside. The essays are organized by month, with each chapter focusing on a particular time of year and the unique characteristics of that season. Rural Hours is a classic work of American nature writing and a valuable historical document that provides insight into the rural life of the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
