Paperback. Zustand: Used; Good. This pocket sized edition of this classic book is yours to give a forever home. The following passage is taken from the introduction and shows the beautiful imagery created by the text - I have attained my ideal: I am a roadmender, some say stonebreaker. Both titles are correct, but the one is more pregnant than the other. All day I sit by the roadside on a stretch of grass under a high hedge of saplings and a tangle of traveller?s joy, woodbine, sweetbrier, and late roses. Opposite me is a white gate, seldom used, if one may judge from the trail of honeysuckle growing tranquilly along it. - The Roadmender is an excellent title about enlightenment that deserves a place in your library.

Paperback. Zustand: Used; Good. Country House Library is proud to present this quintessentialy Edwardian classic title! The Roadmender follows the life and observations of an unnamed road worker. The prose and quotations found within are nothing short of profound and beautiful - Just now it is the summer of things; there is life and music everywhere?in the stones themselves, and I live to-day beating out the rhythmical hammer-song of The Ring. There is real physical joy in the rise and swing of the arm, in the jar of a fair stroke, the split and scatter of the quartz: I am learning to be ambidextrous, for why should Esau sell his birthright when there is enough for both? - a wonderful book and a great addition to any collection.
