"W.H. Hudson is remembered as a naturalist and a writer. He was above all a rambler, and it was this essential quality of being at ease in the wild which enabled him to capture the true spirit of the countryside and its wildlife. Hampshire was Hudson's cherished county... He extols the New Forest, heaps praise on the valleys of the Test and the Itchen and writes of many small Hampshire villages which are still as enchanting. Out of print for many years, this new edition has been illustrated with modern photographs. Countrylovers everywhere, particularly birdwatchers, will find a wealth of natural history and country lore which can be read again and again."
