The Country of George Eliot

Title

The Country of George Eliot

Description

  • "Where can one get a more attractive idea of rural life than in a day's drive through what has been called "The Elizabethan side of Warwickshire?" We go along quiet roads beneath overshadowing elms, meeting here and there a heavy-wheeled wagon with its four massive horses,---the load piled up so high that the boughs snatch a passing toll o sweet new-made hay for golden wheat-ears."
