Green Mansions was my favorite book as a child
Green Mansions was my favorite book as a child! Hudson deserves to be treasured as we lose our wilderness...and fondly remember the joys of our youth,

The book has no format at all. It looks to be printed from txt. Is it a pirate copy?

W. H. Hudson at his best
Should be read by everyone. It will put your heart, mind and soul at rest. It takes you back 150 years to beautiful, almost devoid of human population, Argentina. You will feel like you are part of the beautiful plant and animal life. His most famous fiction book is "Green Mansions" which was made into a movie with Audrey Hepburn, but the movie did not come close to doing the novel justice (it would be almost impossible to bring the soulful feeling of the book to the screen). However this book, "Far Away and Long Ago", is the most famous of his non-fiction books. A great autobiography of his youth.

A beautiful window into an era, and indeed into all life.
I can't recommend this highly enough. I have read many many memoirs, including classics, and this is one of the best. Incredibly evocative and beyond its time.

far away and long ago.
uma obra recomendada por Hernest Hemingway. É uma referencia para quem tem philing por livros relacionados a temas exploratórios e aventuras em territórios selvagens. Um clássico de 1918 com muitas reimpressões. Uma obra de W H Hudson que sem dúvida deve ser lida por leitores afins.
