The Earth-Mother is a novel written by Morley Roberts and published in 1896. The book tells the story of a young woman named Ursula, who is born and raised in the English countryside during the late 19th century. Ursula is deeply connected to the natural world and feels a strong sense of kinship with the earth and its creatures.As she grows older, Ursula becomes increasingly disillusioned with the modern world and its emphasis on industrialization and urbanization. She becomes a vocal advocate for environmentalism and conservation, and begins to see herself as a kind of Earth-Mother, responsible for protecting and nurturing the natural world.The novel explores themes of nature, spirituality, and social justice, and is considered a pioneering work in the genre of eco-fiction. It has been praised for its vivid descriptions of the English countryside and its celebration of the beauty and power of the natural world.Overall, The Earth-Mother is a thought-provoking and inspiring work that encourages readers to take a more active role in protecting the environment and preserving our planet for future generations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
