This 1965 Faber and Faber edition of The Natural History of Selborne presents Gilbert White’s timeless 18th-century observations of the English countryside, capturing detailed accounts of the plants, animals, and seasonal changes around the village of Selborne. Revered as a cornerstone of natural history literature, this edition offers a carefully edited text that preserves White’s insightful letters and keen scientific observations, complemented by mid-century design and possibly illustrative content characteristic of Faber and Faber’s publications.
