Richard Jefferies 
Story of My Heart 
My Autobiography

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The title of this book is ’The Story of my Heart: my Autobiography, ’ but it is not an autobiography in the ordinary sense of the word. It contains no history of the events of Richard Jefferies’ life. It is in no way concerned with his birth or his marriage, his actions or his fortunes. All that is known of these has been told in ’The Eulogy of Richard Jefferies, ’ by Walter Besant.
