A delightful book of excerpts from 18-19th century writings about childhood in Great Britain by well known authors including Flora Thompson, Robert Louis Stephenson, and Beatrix Potter; either their own memories or stories for children. The editor, Piers Dudgeon, provides interspersed context about the authors and their life. He includes contemporary photos of locations mentioned by the authors such as cottages they grew up in or the countryside.
