In "In New England Fields and Woods," Rowland Evans Robinson masterfully intertwines detailed observations of nature with reflective prose, capturing the quintessential essence of rural life in late 19th-century New England. This collection of essays showcases Robinson's lyrical style as he traverses the landscapes, flora, and fauna of his native Vermont, blending personal anecdotes with keen naturalistic insights. The work evokes the transcendentalist tradition while simultaneously emphasizing the practical realities of farm life, presenting nature not solely as a muse but as an entity deeply interwoven with human existence. Robinson, influenced by his upbringing in rural New England and his experiences as a farmer and artist, developed a profound appreciation for the intricacies of the natural world. His eclectic background, from agriculture to the arts, informed his perspective on the connection between humanity and the environment. Robinson's life-long observance of the changing seasons and local wildlife provided him with rich material for reflection, making this work both a personal narrative and an homage to his surroundings. For those seeking an immersive exploration of nature and a deeper understanding of rural New England's cultural fabric, "In New England Fields and Woods" is essential reading. This book not only enriches one's appreciation for the natural world but also serves as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between human endeavor and nature's rhythms.
