(1957) 2018 reprint of 2002 Rupa paperback edition. 8vo (139 x 214mm). Ppii,167. Not illustrated.
Anderson recounts Indian hunts after the Kempekarai tiger, the Sargam panther and elephant in the Gerhetti region and other adventures. "I write these stories not only in the hope that they may afford some degree of pleasure to the adventurous, but that they may also indicate what the conditions of living, in and near the great forests of India, were once like, and to show too that one of the greatest opportunities that any individual could desire, of showing his skill and perseverance in the fine sport of 'Shikar', is now in the process of vanishing forever." (From the introduction).
