He has a way with words. His hunting is commendable, exciting and dangerous. Am sure what started as a sport and a need to survive, has now become a need to save the very animals from extinction. However, what suits the need of the day. All in all, an interesting read.

Absolute classic hunting book.


Jim Corbett was not a large man but as evidenced by his fearless pursuit of maneaters in the early 1900s, he had a very large pair.

A must read for anyone who has dreamt of hunting the ultimate predator.

Entertaining as always. Everytime I read Corbett's books, I sense him being defensive in at some level... About his hunts especially not related to treats from man eaters. Anyways - sometimes you read to just imagine a different world, not to judge.

It has a very beautiful description of each and every encounter. Describing the different terrains for hunting in depth. Liked it!
