""The Wildflowers of Selborne and Other Papers"" is a collection of essays and observations written by John Vaughan, originally published in 1906. The book is named after the village of Selborne in Hampshire, England, where naturalist Gilbert White lived and wrote his famous book ""The Natural History of Selborne"". Vaughan's essays cover a range of topics, including botany, geology, and ornithology, and are written in a lyrical and descriptive style. He describes the flora and fauna of the English countryside, including the habits of birds and insects, and muses on the beauty and wonder of the natural world. The book is a charming and nostalgic glimpse into a bygone era of English country life, and a celebration of the beauty and diversity of the natural world.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
