Summary "Far Away and Long Ago: A History of My Early Life" by W. H. Hudson is a historical account written during the late 19th century. The book reflects on Hudson's childhood experiences growing up on the South American pampas, weaving together vivid memories of his early life, the landscape, and the people surrounding him. The opening of the book introduces readers to Hudson's world, beginning with his earliest memories of his birthplace, a house surrounded by a famous row of ombu trees. He describes the fascinating and often mysterious environment, including encounters with the local fauna, his family dynamics, and intriguing characters like the Hermit and Captain Scott. Hudson's narrative is marked by a deep appreciation for nature and the powerful impressions of childhood—whether it be the ghost of a slave, the loyal sheepdog Pechicho, or the profound moments of joy and sorrow as he navigates the complexities of growing up. This reflective and richly detailed introduction sets the stage for a personal journey through the formative moments of his life, inviting readers to explore his unique childhood experiences.
