Sinopsis
Excerpt from Our Own Weather: A Simple Account of Its Curious, Forms, Its Wide Travels, and Its Notable Effects
We are not simple in either our nature or our habits. We should not be content to live under the trees in continuous warmth or in ice huts under continuous cold. We demand, indeed, at least four good, well-marked seasons and a fairly active exchange month by month, and even day by day, between fair weather and foul. How far in this, as in so many other matters, our luxuriousness has arisen from the mere possession of luxury rather than from some thing quite special and fine in our own prime creation, it would be hard to say. But the luxuriousness itself is indisputable; and the weather, on the whole, meets our sumptuous exactions with generosity.
