By MARY MITFORD. Done with a delicate Dutch fidelity, these little prose
pastorals of Miss Mitford's would live were they purely imaginary--so
perfect is their finish, so tender and joyous their touch. But they
have, in addition, the virtue of being entirely faithful pictures of
English village life as it was at the time they were written. With
sixteen illustrations in colour by Stanhope Forbes, R.A. 350 pp.
