| 520 | 2 | # | $a In The Lone Swallows Mr. Williamson has retained the title of his first “nature book,” together with most of its contents. Otherwise it is a new book, containing as it does many new chapters, including the long Nature Diary which was written by the author when a boy at school just before the Great War. A comparison of this document, its unpremeditated clarity of style, observation of detail, and joie-de-vivre with the essays and stories written five years later, when the youthful war-veteran went to live in Devon, is, in the opinion of the publishers, one of the most significant things about what is essentially a poet’s book.
