Man-Eaters of Kumaon

Man-Eaters of Kumaon

by Jim Corbett

  • BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR
  • 1993
  • PAPER
  • 214 PAGES

These are the memoirs of a turn-of-the-century hunter-turned-conservationist who was much loved in India. Corbett has a park named after him and this book will help you to understand why. It is intelligently written, respectful, and great fun -- an excellent portrait of the Indian hill stations of Uttarakhand.  (HML12, $19.95)
