A famous hunter. A legendary storyteller. A simple man. This book talks about the experiences of hunter and conservationist Jim Corbett, during his years in the United Provinces or what is now known as Uttarakhand. Here we see a different side to Corbett, not as the intrepid hunter of big cats but a man who blends seamlessly with the mountain folk of Northern India. Join him in his adventures and feel the thrills of hunting; follow him into dense forests as he encounters a dreaded dacoit who has a heart of gold; and enjoy the tales of love, loyalty and resilience of simple villagers. This skilful storyteller is sure to keep you glued to the book.
