Description

First published in 1893, W.H. Hudson’s Idle Days in Patagonia is the narrative of his life’s great adventure—a year in Patagonia. His time there climaxed 30 years as a naturalist, riding and roving in his native Argentina. His discuss with to this remote country fulfilled not just a private dream, but in addition a scientific mission. His choice of bird skins at the side of a brilliant report to the Zoological Society of London more than a century ago added greatly to his prestige as an ornithologist. On this book, Hudson’s scientific interests harmonize perfectly with his peculiar narrative and descriptive power. Its acute statement of nature and man, and its evocation of remote places and extraordinary peoples mark him as a author of keenness and distinction.
