Book excerpt: W.H. Hudson, in full William Henry Hudson (born August 4, 1841, near Buenos Aires, Argentina-died August 18, 1922, London, England), British author, naturalist, and ornithologist, best known for his exotic romances, especially Green Mansions.Hudson's parents were originally New Englanders who took up sheep farming in Argentina. He spent his childhood-lovingly recalled in Far Away and Long Ago (1918)-freely roaming the pampas, studying the plant and animal life, and observing both natural and human dramas on what was then a lawless frontier. After an illness at 15 permanently affected his health, he became introspective and studious; his reading of Charles Darwin's Origin of Species, which confirmed his own observations of nature, had a particularly strong impact. After his parents' death, he led a wandering life. Little is known of this period or of his early years in England, where he settled in 1869 (and was naturalized in 1900). Poverty and ill-health may have occasioned his marriage in 1876 to a woman much older than himself. He and his wife lived precariously on the proceeds of two boardinghouses, until she inherited a house in the Bayswater section of London, where Hudson spent the rest of his life.His early books, romances with a South American setting, are weak in characterization but imbued with a brooding sense of nature's power. Although Hudson's reputation now rests chiefly on these novels, when published they attracted little attention. The first, The Purple Land that England Lost, 2 vol. (1885), was followed by several long short stories, collected in 1902 as El Omb�. His last romance, Green Mansions (1904), is the strange love story of Rima, a mysterious creature of the forest, half bird and half human. Rima, the best known of Hudson's characters, is the subject of the statue by Jacob Epstein in the bird sanctuary erected in Hudson's memory in Hyde Park, London, in 1925.The romances secured Hudson the friendship of many English men of letters, among them Joseph Conrad, Ford Madox Ford, Edward Garnett, and George Gissing. His books on ornithological studies (Argentine Ornithology, 1888-89; British Birds, 1895; etc.) brought recognition from the statesman Sir Edward Grey, who procured him a state pension in 1901. He finally achieved fame with his books on the English countryside-Afoot in England (1909), A Shepherd's Life (1910), Dead Man's Plack (1920), A Traveller in Little Things (1921), and A Hind in Richmond Park (1922). By their detailed, imaginative descriptions, conveying the sensations of one who accepted nature in all its aspects, these works did much to foster the "back-to-nature" movement of the 1920s and 1930s but were subsequently little read.

Download or read book Far Away and Long Ago written by W. Hudson and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The autobiography of W. H. Hudson contains unique and sensuous insights into his early life in provincial Argentina during the mid-19th century. By the time he published this retrospective account of his formative years, W. H. Hudson was a highly respected and famous naturalist and ornithologist, responsible for the expansion and development of both disciplines. He was also a novelist, publishing tales of romantic adventure to praise. Although he held a special love for his native Argentina, and the Patagonia region of South America, Hudson would permanently migrate to England in 1874, remaining there for most of his remaining years. His studies and comparisons of the avian species of Britain and his native land were welcomed by the academic establishment in the UK, who found Hudson's papers well-researched and informed by their author's origins. In contrast to Hudson's professional output, Far Away and Long Ago relates tales of pastoral life in Argentina, a nation which at the time of Hudson's childhood had barely begun to industrialise. The natural habitat, traditions of the locals, and Hudson's early observations of birds are chronicled, as is his very first journey to the capital city of Buenos Aires. A treasure for its historical insight into an Argentina now long past, and for charting the early years of a talented naturalist, Far Away and Long Ago is a highly accessible and interesting autobiography.
