Description

This book is the best-known of Colonel Corbett's books, and contains ten fascinating stories of tracking and shooting man-eaters in the Indian Himalayas during the early years of this century.

Jim Corbett's books on man-eating tigers are not only established classics, but also almost in a separate literary category by themselves.

The stories also contain incidental information on flora, fauna and village life, making this book altogether delightful reading.
