    About this ebook

    “Nino Diablo” is a short story by Argentinian writer William Hudson. Part of his “South American Romances” series, this volume is not to be missed by those with an interest in south American culture and folklore in general. William Henry Hudson (1841–1922) was an Argentinian ornithologist and nature writer. Other notable works by this author include: “Argentine Ornithology” (1888-1899), “British Birds” (1895), and “Hampshire Day” (1903). This interesting tale is highly recommended for fans of Hudson's work, and it would make for a worthy addition to any collection. Not to be missed by those who have read and enjoyed others in the series. 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 biography of the author.

    W. H. Hudson

    William Henry Hudson (1841–1922) was an author and naturalist. Hudson was born in Argentina, the son of English and American parents. There, he studied local plants and animals as a young man, publishing his findings in Proceedings of the Royal Zoological Society, in a mixture of English and Spanish. Hudson’s familiarity with nature was readily evident in later novels such as A Crystal Age and Green Mansions. He later aided the founding of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.
