Here is episode two of After London, or Wild England, by Richard Jeffries.
To hear episode one, find it on my podcast homepage by searching "Storytime with Martin Lovell" on whichever app you are listening on.
After London, or Wild England, by Richard Jeffries. First published in 1885, before the horrors of either World Wars, the Wright Brothers' first flight, the Internet, the Space Race, Nuclear Warfare, nor any other technological breakthrough of the 20th Century. Welcome to England, struck low at its' imperialistic zenith.
Enjoy!
This story is over one hundred years old. This means it is very much of its time and can use words and phrases that, by today’s standards, could be considered offensive or at best, strange to our modern ears.
I have done my best to change words or phrases that are obviously needlessly offensive, however, I cannot guarantee that I have found them all, or am even aware of the possible origins of some, and so if what I read does have negative connotations that causes offense, I apologise and direct you to the author of the works being read.
