Arguably the best-known of Jim
Corbett’s books, Man-eaters of Kumaon comprises ten stories, each of which
details Corbett’s encounters with various dangerous man-eaters in the
Himalayan region. With fascinating tales such as ‘The Champawat Man-eater’,
in which Corbett recounts how he hunted down a tigress who had reportedly
killed 436 people in the Champawat region; ‘Robin’, a tribute to Corbett’s
faithful spaniel who accompanied him on many a hunt and ‘The Bachelor of
Powalgarh’, the story of the most sought-after big cat in the United
Provinces from 1920 to 1930, this collection is sure to send your heartbeat
racing. Enlivened by an introduction by Ruskin Bond, this book, that made
Corbett famous in India and abroad, is a must-read for fans of adventure
stories and jungle lore.
