First published in 1921, "A Traveller in Little Things" is a charming
travel narrative of the author's various rambles around the beautiful
countryside of England. Highly recommended for all lovers of nature
writing. William Henry Hudson (1841 - 1922) was an Argentinian
naturalist, author, and ornithologist. He was one of the founding
members of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, and is best
known for his novel "Green Mansions" (1904). Other notable works
include "A Little Boy Lost" (1905) and "Far Away and Long Ago" (1918),
which has since been adapted into a film. Hudson is considered a
national treasure in Argentina, and his legacy lives on in the form of
an Italian town and numerous other public places named after him.
Contents include: "How I Found My Title", "The Old Man's Delusion",
"As A Tree Falls", "A Story Of Long Descent", "A Second Story Of Two
Brothers", "A Third Story Of Two Brothers", "The Two White Houses: A
Memory", "Dandy A Story Of A Dog", "The Samphire Gatherer", "A Surrey
Village", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming
increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now
in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a
specially commissioned new biography of the author.
