In A Shepherd’s Life he describes lovingly the chalk downs, the green and wooded valleys, and the clear streams of the Wylye, the Avon and the Nadder. The central figure in this landscape is a picturesque old man called Caleb Bawcombe, the pseudonym Hudson chose for a retired head shepherd from a hilltop village he calls Winterbourne Bishop – in fact, Martin on the Hampshire/Wiltshire border. I love the pieces that are included in this edition; however, they are merely smatterings taken from A Shepherd's Life. I had hoped the book I ordered was unabridged. That aside, W.H. Hudson was a masterfull writer and his prose, in most instances, magnificent and highly descriptive. W. H. Hudson is the author of ""Far Away and Long Ago,"" "" Green Mansions,"" ""The Naturalist in La Plata,"" and ""The Purple Land.""
