Beschreibung

Far Away and Long Ago is a moving memoir of a vanished world, written by legendary naturalist and writer W. H. Hudson. Lyrical and poignant, Hudson's reminiscences take us on a journey back in time to the lush and untamed landscape of his childhood in the Argentine pampas.
From his earliest memories of the vast and boundless wilderness that surrounded him to his encounters with the people who inhabited the land, Hudson paints a vivid portrait of the natural world, revealing the beauty and complexity of the creatures and landscapes that shaped his life and inspired his writing. Part coming-of-age tale, part love letter to the natural world, Far Away and Long Ago is a timeless classic that continues to charm readers more than a century after its initial publication.
This Warbler Classics edition includes a little-known letter that Hudson wrote expressing his thoughts about Henry David Thoreau and a detailed biographical timeline.

Über den Autor

W. H. Hudson was a British biologist, ornithologist, and author who lived from 1841 to 1922. Hudson, who was born in Argentina to British parents, spent a large portion of his youth travelling and learning about the flora and animals of South America. In his early twenties, he came to England and took a job as a clerk. Despite this, he continued to write about nature and in 1892, "The Naturalist in La Plata," his first book, was published. After that, Hudson published numerous other books about the natural environment, including "British Birds" and "Idle Days in Patagonia." He is most well-known, however, for his books, including "Green Mansions" and "The Purple Land," which merged his love of the outdoors with his prowess as a writer. The grandeur and mystique of the wilderness were beautifully and evocatively captured in Hudson's writing, which was praised for its in-depth and evocative depictions of the natural environment. He was also a forerunner in the conservation movement and a proponent of preserving endangered species' habitats.
