About This Novel
Selborne is a small village located 50 miles southwest of London, England, and is also the hometown of the author White. White loved nature and liked to observe biological dynamics. He often corresponded with two friends in London who were also engaged in natural history research and exchanged observations. "Selborne Natural History" was written on the basis of these letters. With a leisurely attitude and a rigorous scientific attitude, White described the natural scenery of the British countryside and observed and recorded the birds, animals and plants of Selborne. His simple and straightforward writing depicts Selborne like a picture scroll, and at the same time shows the British rural life in the 18th century, full of pastoral interest.
