Summer In A Bog is a novel written by Katharine Dooris Sharp and published in 1913. The story takes place in the countryside of Ireland, where a group of young people spend their summer vacation exploring the local bogs and marshes. The main character is a young woman named Eileen, who is fascinated by the natural beauty and wildlife of the bog. She is joined by her friends, including her cousin Tom, who is studying to become a botanist. Together, they encounter a variety of creatures and plants, including rare orchids and carnivorous sundews. Along the way, they also learn about the history and folklore of the area, including stories of the ancient Celts who once lived there. As the summer progresses, Eileen and Tom develop a romantic relationship, but their happiness is threatened by a wealthy landowner who wants to drain the bog and turn it into farmland. The novel explores themes of love, nature, and conservation, and offers a vivid portrayal of the Irish countryside.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
