""A Traveller In Little Things"" is a collection of essays by W. H. Hudson, an English author and naturalist. The book is a reflection on the small things in life that often go unnoticed, such as the behavior of animals, the beauty of nature, and the intricacies of human relationships. Hudson's writing style is lyrical and contemplative, and he uses his keen observations to explore larger themes of love, loss, and the human experience. The book is divided into chapters that cover a range of topics, from the habits of birds to the joys of reading, and each essay is a thoughtful meditation on the wonders of the world around us. Overall, ""A Traveller In Little Things"" is a beautiful and insightful work that encourages readers to slow down and appreciate the small moments that make life worth living.Some vague speculations passed through my mind as to how old the village might be. I had heard some person remark that it had formerly been much more populous, that many of its people had from time to time drifted away to the towns; their old empty cottages pulled down and no new ones built. The road was deep and the cottages on either side stood six to eight or nine feet above it. Where a cottage stood close to the edge of the road and faced it, the door was reached by a flight of stone or brick steps; at such cottages the landing above the steps was like a balcony, where one could stand and look down upon a passing cart, or the daily long straggling procession of children going to or returning from the village school.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
