Animal Life in Field and Garden Paperback - 2005
by J. Henri Fabre; Florence Constable Bicknell (Translator)
First line
"IN these talks that we shall have together," said Uncle Paul, as he sat with his nephews one evening in May under the big elder tree in the garden, "I propose to designate as 'friends' those forms of animal life that, though not domesticated or cared for by us, nevertheless come to our aid by waging war on insects and various other devouring creatures which would in the end, unless their excessive multiplication were kept in restraint by others besides ourselves, eat up all our crops and lay waste our fields; and it is these ravagers of the farmer's carefully tilled acres that I shall speak of as 'foes.'
