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. A Shepherd's Life begins, "Wiltshire looks large on the map of England a great green county yet it never appears to be a favourite one to those who go on rambles in the land." W H Hudson takes his reader on a magical tour of this area of England. His descriptions of the rural area are beautiful to read. Hudson brings the past alive for his readers. There are many descriptions of the relationship between shepherds and their dogs, peculiar behaviors of various animals, tales of strange people, and extensive descriptions of the land itself. A lot of the stories in this book come from an old shepherd.
