Books with author Wade Hudson

William Henry Hudson lived form 1841 to 1922. He was an author, naturalist and ornithologist. Hudson's parents settled in Argentina where Hudson spent his youth studying the flora and fauna of the area. Hudson later moved to England where he helped found the back to nature movement. In 1918 he wrote Far Away and Long Ago, which was an autobiography of his early life. Hudson's love of nature and the environment is expressed in this book of charm and grace. The book is a description of his travels, some of them unpleasant. Descriptions of animals and young children add to the interest of the novel.

Afoot in England, first published in 1909, recounts the author's wanderings from village to village across the south of England, from Surrey to Devon and Cornwall, and along the East Anglian coast.His work speaks powerfully of the simple pleasures of the English countryside.Despite many years living in poverty in London, when his country rambles were an escape from a life that then held few other pleasures, Hudson eventually achieved fame with his books about the English countryside, which in turn helped to foster the back-to-nature movement of the 1920s and 1930s.This edition is introduced by Robert Macfarlane, Fellow of Emmanuel College Cambridge, and a contemporary explorer of Britain's wild places. He is the author of Mountains of the Mind and The Wild Places.
