MY BOYHOOD 



By John Burroughs 



It is amazing that an old man could think 

 himself back into the psychology of his boy- 

 hood with such fidelity as has John Bur- 

 roughs. His autobiography describes the life 

 of the leading American writer-naturalist on 

 his father's farm eighty years ago. Illus- 

 trated with water color sketches and photos 

 by Julian Burroughs.
