About this product

Product Information

The presence of a man-eating tiger in the impoverished rural community of Nainital spread fear and panic among the terrified locals. This tigress had already devoured over 460 victims by the time Jim Corbett was approached to track and kill her in 1907.These ten thrilling and moving tales are Corbett's first-hand accounts as he expertly tracks and kills many tigers and two leopards which had become man-eaters, driven to this by injury or extreme old age. No one understood the signs of the jungle better than Corbett. A skilled tracker, Corbett preferred to hunt alone and on foot, sometimes accompanied by his small dog Robin. He derived intense happiness from his observations of wildlife and was an important conservationist as well as a tracker and ace shot. He empathised with the impoverished people amongst whom he lived, in what is today Uttrakhand, and he established India's first tiger sanctuary there.Corbett's writing is as immediate and accessible today as it was when first published in 1944.

Never received the item the first time it was supposedly sent. Almost 100% sure it was forgotten to be put in the parcel for the combined shipping with another item, although I was told to wait and it was a separate shipping. Contacted them again. Was told they would send a replacement and to wait 5-15 days. Never received notification of shipping and never received the second copy either. Leaving negative review before the time for feedback expires. Waiting word on refund. Buyer beware!
