| biography:
| Writer and naturalist, born near Buenos Aires. He moved to England in 1869 and became a British subject in 1900. His early writings concerned the natural history of South America, but he is best known for the account of his rambles in the New Forest in Hampshire Days (1903), his romantic novel Green Mansions (1904), and the autobiographical Far Away and Long Ago (1918). His ornithological works include Birds in London (1898), and The Book of a Naturalist (1919). A bird sanctuary was created in his memory in Hyde Park, London (1925), and Epstein's sculpture ‘Rima’ (a character from Green Mansions) erected there. |
