In the Steps of Thomas Hardy
Anne-Marie Edwards

They "Walked under a sky
Of blue with a leaf-wove awning of green
In the burn of August to paint the scene..."
"Under the Waterfall"

Few writers have captured the spirit of rural life and the majestic setting of an English landscape as brilliantly as Thomas Hardy, author of Far from the Madding Crowd and Tess of the d'Urbervilles. His books have inspired generations since they were written and he remains one of the most popular of English novelists and poets. We can follow his footsteps and those of his characters over windswept uplands and through quiet villages. Little has changed since Hardy was born near Dorchester more than 150 years ago. More...
