| Publisher Description: In Green Laurels, Donald Culross Peattie combines his extensive knowledge of history's foremost naturalists with his personal observations about the subject to form what the New York Herald Tribune calls a delightful book...one would not wish to miss on any account. This piece is accurate and precise but according to Nation, there is not a line which is not dramatically vivid and entertaining. Peattie's enthusiasm and enlightened curiosity make Green Laurels appealing to readers of all backgrounds. |
