William Henry Hudson was an Anglo-Argentine author, naturalist and ornithologist. His works include
Green Mansions
(1904).
Argentines consider him to belong to their national literature as
Guillermo Enrique Hudson
, the Spanish version of his name. He spent his youth studying the local flora and fauna and observing natural and human dramas on then a lawless frontier, publishing his ornithological work in
Proceedings of the Royal Zoological Society
, initially in an English mingled with Spanish idioms. He settled in England during 1874. He produced a series of ornithological studies, including
Argentine Ornithology
(1888-1899) and
British Birds
(1895), and later achieved fame with his books on the English countryside, including
Hampshire Days
(1903),
Afoot in England
(1909) and
A Shepherd's Life
(1910). People best know his nonfiction in
Far Away and Long Ago
(1918). His other works include:
The Purple Land (That England Lost)
(1885),
A Crystal Age
(1887),
The Naturalist in La Plata
(1892),
A Little Boy Lost
(1905),
Birds in Town and Village
