Summer in a Bog (1913)

Summer In A Bog is a book written by Katharine Dooris Sharp and published in 1913. The book is a memoir of the author's experiences spending a summer in a bog in rural Massachusetts. Sharp describes the natural beauty of the bog and the surrounding area, as well as the various creatures that inhabit it, including birds, insects, and amphibians. She also reflects on the challenges of living in such a remote and isolated location, including the difficulties of obtaining food and water, and the dangers posed by the unpredictable weather and the bog itself. Throughout the book, Sharp offers insights into the rhythms of nature and the interconnectedness of all living things, and she celebrates the simple pleasures of a life lived close to the land. The book is a vivid and lyrical account of a unique and challenging experience, and it offers a fascinating glimpse into a world that is often overlooked in our modern, urbanized society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
