Overview
‘ When I came toive in Mussoorie just over fifty years ago, Iived in Maplewoododge, a cottage below Wynberg-Allen School. Its windows opened on to a well-forested hillside. So naturally I wrote about the trees, wild flowers and birds and other creatures whoived among them. Then circumstances forced me to move higher up the mountain and for theast thirty-five years I haveived on the top floor of Ivy Cottage, inandour Cantonment. Here there are windows too and they open on to the sky, clouds, the Doon valley and range upon range of mountains. And from this perch on the hillside I feel that I am part of the greater world, mother India as well as the natural world of planet Earth.’ In this charming collection, Ruskin Bond talks about his various encounters with the natural world. From the chorus of cicadas to the song of the whistling thrush, from hisove for sea shells to his favourite place on earth, Bond details why he has such an overwhelmingove for nature.
