Idle Days in Patagonia

Gelesen von Kevin W. Davidson

(4,875 Sterne; 4 Bewertungen)

Hudson traveled to Patagonia to study the birds, but shortly upon arrival accidentally shot himself in the knee, requiring a lengthy period of idleness to recover, hence the title of the book. It's not just a work of ornithology, but a personal memoir of the people and natural history of Patagonia. - Summary by Kevin Davidson (6 hr 55 min)
