Days Off, and Other Digressions

Days Off, and Other Digressions is a collection of essays by Henry Van Dyke, written in the early 20th century. The work emphasizes the importance of leisure, self-discovery, and the necessity of taking breaks from daily routines. Central to the essays is Uncle Peter, who advocates for the value of 'days off' and the joy found in shared relaxation. This collection invites readers to reflect on their own leisure practices and the significance of unstructured time in achieving fulfillment.

“The proverb says that 'well begun is half done.' But the other half is harder and more necessary,-to get a thing well ended.””
