'The Disappointed Squirrel and Other Stories' is a charming collection of short stories concerning the daily lives and adventures of various animals. William Henry Hudson (1841 - 1922) was an Argentinian naturalist, author, and ornithologist. Other notable works by this author include: 'Argentine Ornithology' (1888-1899), 'British Birds' (1895), and 'A Shepherd’s Life' (1910). This lovely collection will appeal to nature lovers both young and old, and it would make for a superb addition to collections of vintage literature. Contents include: 'Adventures with Foxes', 'The Disappointed Squirrel', 'Jack Jackdaw and some Other Birds', 'The Man Who Ate a Heron', 'My Friend the Pig', 'Cristiano: A Horse', 'Mary’s Little Lamb', 'A Friendly Rat', 'The Potato at Home and in England', 'The Little Red Dog', and 'Johnny-Go-to-Bed-at-Noon'. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction.
