Why read it?
1 author picked The Book of a Naturalist as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This was another compilation of essays.
Hudson told Don Roberto Cunninghame Graham he thought it "quite as good as anything in that line I’ve done before," as he supplied one for Don Roberto's mother Missy Bontine. It was a rare example of him expressing satisfaction in anything he’d written.
When people ask me where to start with Hudson, I usually suggest starting with one of the essay books (Birds and Man or Adventures Among Birds are others).
From Conor's list on W. H. Hudson, in his own words.
