White, facing p. 3
The 1900 edition of Gilbert White's The Natural History of Selborne shows the village, nestling below a "long hanging wood" (4). The book as a whole was deemed to take the "most delightful form that can be imagined. The attraction lies chiefly in finding the masterpiece so admirably illustrated by Mr. Edmund H. New. In black and white line work of this class he has no equal. — Country Life,/span>, qtd. in White (following p. 528)
