The Nature Notes of an Edwardian Lady by Edith Holden

2.0

I was torn on how to rate this, and decided ultimately not to rate it. While I loved Edith Holden's sketches and paintings as much as I had in "The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady"; I could not read the journal notes. For some reason the publisher re-did all of the journal notes in a typed font, rather than leaving her original writing as the first book did. The notes in her own writing really brings her voice to things; and having it all in type takes away from the book. Having read the first book, I found it jarring enough that it took me out of her notes. Bad move by the publisher in my opinion. However, if you love nature journals, it is still worth a look as the paintings are lovely.
