In this remastered episode, we revisit a perfectly sleepy book that celebrates a symbol of autumn. This 19th century ode to apples includes history, health advice, and a nod to Johnny Appleseed, because of course it does.

NOTE: This is the first in what will be occasional remastered episodes of readings from the past that I think are great (and newer listeners have probably missed), but which could definitely use some refreshment to better audio standards.
