“Wondrously beautiful are the prevailing tints of October, the mingling of red, gold, and brown producing the tawny look described by Richard Jefferies, ‘The tawniness is indistinct, it haunts the sunshine and is not to be fixed, any more than you can say where it begins and ends in the complexion of a brunette…’”

Thus begins Florence Haines description of fall colors, followed by a rousing narrative of why and how trees lose their leaves.
